About Observations of an Unimportant Man

I'm a London-based Australian who lately has spent far too much time on the road and far too little behind the keyboard. What I should be doing is working on making the sites listed below bigger, brighter and bouncier instead of running from creditors, responsibility and that strange Russian looking guy with a scar on his cheek and a limp.

I have successfully ordered chicken in over 80 countries and I now know the pronunciation of 'crazy' in eight different languages. Occassionally I take photos and write travel articles in exchange for pastry-based snacks.

My biggest fear is public speaking from a dentist's chair in a spiralling out of control 747.

An Aussie in London

What started as an article and a half for some throw-away online publication four years ago has turned into a 40+ chapter behemoth chronicling my pathetic life when I first arrived in London.

So if you're planning on living in London and you want the lowdown on how to find a flat, gain meaningful employment, pick up hot chicks and down heaps of alcohol, probably best try google or speak to some really cool guy.

Photograph London

My latest little project is Photograph-London.com - it's a fairly descriptive name. The plan here was to take shed-loads of photos of London and make them searchable by landmark/suburb/event....you get the picture.

By Streetlight Photography

I've always had a bit of a fascination for photos lit by streetlight. This site is the result of that fascination - a bit of a gallery of some of my fave night time pics.
