The student backpacker, lol! Vivid images of the 'budget' stricken student on a world tour straggling in airports (yep that's me, even sleeping in it!). After much drama and drudgery in the working life, I looked forward to a more sedate academic environment with the added bonus of adventure, fun and lots of it! Hence this blog, to document my adventures and travels and most of all have a bit of a laugh at myself.
Other than travelling, my academic interests and employment background lie in international finance and economics and some bits related to human resources, industrial relations & employment law. When not pre-occupied, I am continually in the pursuit of my other passion ..."la bella macchina".
I intend to accurately record my experiences as best as I could, hence, there may be entries which are "odd" and out of kilter, may not make sense to the reader such as references to music(I dabble a bit with my home studio), pop culture and newspaper or journal clippings that interest me. A small caveat: I reserve the right to rant via this medium and extend the "silent scream" therapy....(or indulge me while I carry on like a peanut).
