I went like this. O.O It was a cold and windy day. Mr Sun was nowhere to be seen. And I have a naked guy on the rocks “tanning” away. I was innocently walking around Watsons Bay, just a short distance away from Sydney. Walking, taking photos and shivering due to the dismal weather. I…

So yesterday I let my impulse get the better of me. I managed to ride my way over the waters in a swaying cable car, squished sand between my feet, listened to the waves crashing on the beach and survived a hair-raising lift among the treetops on my return back to civilization, all within 3…
