So now that my Melbourne accommodation has fallen through (long story but basically you can’t count on anyone), I’ve started my first day of official funemployment by strolling down to grab a morning coffee in order to get my head on straight followed by sitting around in my underwear replying to emails/txts and contacting people regarding accommodation and making new plans.

“So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s...
