in Milano...crazy crazy stories involving car and military people in former russia. Also I learned to drive (aka they gave me the keys and fell asleep) in Estonia. Now me drives good. except gear stick is on the wrong side of the car so i sometimes forget myself and go to change gears with left hand and smack my hand against the window. Doh!!! :)

see yall soon. Ciao Ragazzi

Morning kids...just to let you know that i am alive :)

I am in Riga, Latvia. Look it up on a map...it is a beautiful city that you MUST visit. Baltic Europe, although hmmm....interesting at times, is actually very Interesting the rest of the time also. Cool. Ok, see y'all soon.

Hmmm...bad day...gregory peck died today and i am still stuck in Jönköping.. d'oh!!!!

OK, so this could possibly be it...my last post from Sweden...seeing as i begin travelling around after this and won't be online much until i return to the land of Oz. Life's been hella hectic these last two weeks...saying good bye...packing etc. i have heaps to tell you all and lots of photos to bore you with (actually i have close to 8,000 photos but don't worry only about 50 of them are what i would consider publically displayable!!!) but that can wait! Good luck to Mere with her exchange and i will see you soonish i guess! To everyone else for sure there will be a BBQ at my place nearer to my post return.

In the mean time Una, Bebe, Gian, Andy, Katja, Michie, and others spread throughout Eastern Europe...see you soon I hope...i'll let you know via email asap.

Hmmm...I wish i could think of anything mroe to say...my sister stayed here with me (jackie) and had a crazy arsed time....M + D she is now in Norway. Go figure! She is healthy though and in good spirits...has plans to possibly get a job on a ship in Greece...i say good for her. But you never know what she will do next soooooooooo...

ok

peace out see you all soooon.....

Last post from Sweden soon. In the meantime click here from Fush.

oh, and dear lord this is cool...2 player option would rock out more though...

w000000000000000000000t!!
My professor said my program worked!!! I have finished my Swedish studies!!! YEAH!!!
to the beach i say! to the beach!!

with only 6 days remaining in this pretty little town of jönköping the new radiohead cd is taking on all kinds of relevance in my life. As each day another handful of my 300 international friends leaves it gets harder to hold back tears, because for us australians having friends in europe makes for a pretty expensive weekend coffee trip (although sponsors would be dearly welcome). an advanced warning of the impending chaos that will be my physci upon my return to kanga-land, so please be patient with me.

in happier news jackie (my sister) arrived early on my doorstep yesterday 1 hour before my gig, so not only did she see it, but she and i played together too. it was muchly fun...and i have it on recording and video...although gawd damnit if she didn't make me hella nervous and screw up all my songs. her leg is better now, so there will be a strict diet of craziness in my house considering i now have her, michela and nicole all living on my bedroom floor. woah.

omg jaymis this is HILARIOUS!!!!
