  • shanghai insanity

    shanghai is insane. the worlds fastest growing city and you just know it. there is a feeling that this place is snowballing into it’s own concrete country. very different from the rest of china.

    it’s easy to meet people, every one is friendly. most people i meet are american teachers or german business contractors! the english speaking community is strong and vibrant. it’s exciting here. something is always happening. i’ve been here 3 months now, i still walk out my door with the thought. “fuck, i’m in china”. awesome.

    view from my 22nd floor apartment.

  • happy birthday me

    i turned 27 today. this was the view i had from my brunch table a top the shanghai art museum. house warming party last night. i now have a fantastic apartment and flat mate, i also have a pounding hangover.

    i estimate it will take me about 3 months to get settled in, learn some basic chinese and find a group of friends. in the mean time there is a gym and swimming pool in my apartment. sweet.

  • i’m in perth

    i’m in perth, it’s winter, and i’m busy with lot’s of freelance projects, so of course i’m making videos about loop the loops !

    now, if you’re ever after a £500 white gold vibrator… i’m the man to ask. one of my latest projects is for a broome jeweler who hand makes these toys.

    and yes, that is a broome pearl inset into the bellend.
