I get to enjoy one morning of daylight saving in Sydney on the Harbour just long enough to head to Rockhampton tonight and lose it again!

With Ian, in our usual coffee shop in Wolli Creek!

Mario and I now have a habit of going to hang out at various places around the Harbour. This time, Huntley's Point.

Good morning Sydney! All my teaching courses are done for the year, and now I get to enjoy a week at home and jog to the Harbour every day for a coffee. It's the little things that I have missed, being on the road so much.

Because i am still not stopping, here I am in Adelaide, about to drive out to Berri, but stopping in to see Mal, Nev and Vince!

Back in Sydney and teaching anaesthetic emergencies. Meet my friend Mr Burns!

After 10 days working at the hospital in Derby, Western Australia, it's time to head back to Sydney for a night at home. Here I am at the Jetty a couple of days ago. Sunsets here are spectacular, and this photo doesn't do it justice.

I come all the way to the other side of the country and I run into friends from a few suburbs away! Dale and Michael are working their way around the Northern Territory and Western Australia. Here we are at the Derby Jetty on a Sunday afternoon.

On the Great Northern Highway between Broome and Derby, Western Australia. These are termite mounds, and there are thousands of them all around me. Incredible. Also, hello, Western Australia! Here for the next 11 days.

An afternoon roaming along Harbour Parks with Tom and Michael.

Off to Melbourne and later Echuca. I find myself flying next to Dr George today!

Back in South Australia for a week for work. Stopping in on the drive to Berri to catch up with Robin, whom I haven't seen since the 2010s!

It's a little windy today!

Stopping off to say hello to Nigel and Martin in rural Victoria on the way home to Sydney after a long shift in Wangaratta.

I thought I might get more time off to recover, but it seems that hospitals are desperate. I am finding myself flying to Melbourne and then driving to Wangaratta for a 24 hour shift tomorrow. Melbournians, this is a land at Tullamarine and drive out into rural Victoria, so catch you next time!

If you visit Kuala Lumpur and you don't go to the Petronas Towers at night, did you really visit KL? They shine in a way that you can't capture on camera. You can't help but feel how grand they are.

Good morning Kuala Lumpur! Waiting to get into my hotel room and have a nap, but for now, just taking in this view!

See, I can be a tourist in India and not just see bears on my travels! Humayun’s Tomb, the National Museum, and Red Fort. If you are wondering why my face was flushed all the time, it was INSANELY hot. (@Delhi, India)

Going out to dinner with Amit and Edgar in Delhi, India, and discovering the gem that is the National Sports Club here. Amit and I have a lot of history in shared fields and careers and every time we catch up is amazing. One of my kindred spirits in this world.

A quite couple of days in Brussels with friends, including Andy who came over from the UK, Chris who came in from the coast, and Fillipos whom I kept chatting with on the coatcheck at Stammbar in the wee hours of the morning. Brussels felt like I was back home again!

Hello from Brussels! I was on planes all night Málaga to Doha to Brussels so I arrived tired this morning, and only just now got into my hotel room. Brussels is a fun town, but for the next couple of hours, it will just be a nap for me. Good night!

Torremolinos was amazing. Less intense than Sitges, a much more comfortable feeling. Afternoons with coffee at Baloo Bar, very late nights out at bars (including my favourite, Crews Bar) until 4am were a workout for this old man!

Sunday bingo brings all the bears to the yard. (@Baloo Bar, Torremolinos)

Good morning Torremolinos!

So I had a 5 hour layover in Boston on the way to Doha, and Ed came in to pick me up and we headed out for dinner and a walk in Chelsea with Johnny! Much more fun than hanging out at the airport!

Palm Springs is now gay Mecca. It's the black hole that sucked up all the gay out of California and put it in one place. My three days there were almost life changing. Pool parties, pizza parties, cigar/leather socials, fun bars and the most amazing people.

Heading off to Palm Springs, but seeing Con and Mark again in San Diego was something I needed. These guys are family.

Arrived in San Diego. Lunch with the family.

Hello, Alaska! Can't stay, just dropping by. All my Alaska friends, miss you so much and I will be back!

In St Louis, Missouri. Jim, Chris, Crash and Joe invite me for a meal with a bunch of St Louis specialities! Such a fun night. It has been almost 25 years since I have seen three of these guys and it will not be 25 years before I am back again!
