New Year’s Eve is an exciting event, which is celebrated globally. But as you all know, in Sydney, it is an experience that is more than just exciting. Being in Sydney for the past one year, I am well-acquainted with this city, its festivities and its people.

The Quiet Excitement of Being at the Airport
The airport is still an exciting place to be, no matter your age. Well, a big enough airport is, at least. I've waited in airports that amount to not much more than a shed, and they're as dull and depressing as waiting for a bus beside a duel carriageway.

Zambia Journal. Top Story - August 2022.
I start my story somewhere around the beginning of the middle. It is March in 2022. We are on The Great North Road, in a Land Rover, in Zambia, traveling from the capital, Lusaka, to Fimpulu in Luapula Province near the DRC (Democratic Republic of Congo) border. I am riding with my daughter, one of her bosses, a coworker of my daughter, and her mother. I landed at Kenneth Kaunda International Airport in Lusaka two days previously, after twenty-two hours of flying from JFK in New York and a mid-journey eight-hour overnight layover in Doha, Qatar. The other mother, an American living in Dubai, had just landed after a seven-hour flight.

The Kelpies and The Falkirk Wheel
The Kelpies The Kelpies A few years ago I was driving up the M9 towards Dollar in Scotland, it was dark and raining and suddenly I nearly crashed the car when I saw two huge hundred-foot-high horses' heads to my left-hand side. I had to pull over. I am not sure if I tried to take a photograph but I was dumbfounded.

Banana boats are fun and enjoyable. They are also powered by a motor, but are slower than speedboats. In shallow water, however, the bananas can top over. But there is nothing to worried, as everyone wears life jacket. In Goa, you cannot ride without full and proper safety precautions. Cost taken for this ride is 500 per person for 20 minute ride.

How I Plan To End The Year On a High Note
For billions, 2022 was the first normal year after a horrendous couple of years and coming into it I had high hopes and renewed dreams. As nonchalant as I am, I was kind of nervous stepping into the New Year but I guess that’s also part of who I am. I was supposed to make a buck load of money and have heaps of fun, but I was humbled by life itself, when a sickness had struck me. Now the year feels like it’s been split into messy chapters and rightfully so. I started out as a copywriter, enjoyed a brief vacation in Gold Coast, my hair got whiter by the month, I became ill for over two weeks and now I’m getting back on my feet in August, which made me wonder ‘What’s next?’.
