AUSTRALIA
30 October 2015 - 15 January 2015
Introduce the man, introduce the place that made him.
It was time. All the places, all the stories. This was to be an introduction to the stage, the theatre, the opera house to which all of these events were played out. Now it was time to show Inga where I came from and provide a visual context to all those stories and events that supported me.
Reflecting back now, that period of time had been somewhat odd. In the same year Inga and I had travelled through South America, then I returned to Australia, packed up the house in Seven Hills and to Serbia. After a few months in Serbia I'd come back to Australia with the objective of selling the property at #90. In the interim period I'd gone back to work at the Federal Court for a few weeks. All of a sudden my life had returned back to what it had been previously, sort of, knowing full well that the changes were ringing in, well and truly.
During this period of time, late October 2015 to January 2016, the plan was to show Inga as much of Australia as possible, and perhaps for me to visit some of the well known places that I had never truly considered going to myself.
So, in the tradition of other all my other kick-off write-ups such as Life in a year full of Saturdays, Keep calm and drive on, Treinta y Cuarenta - the tour of never say never, Argentina - the two timer tour, Don't call this a comeback, 43:The tour of awesome....I bring you, 'Australia - Here's what you'll get'.
Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, oi, oi, oi.
(Yup, unfortunately you'll get that line too).
