Change of plan

Happy New Year!

Well! It's amazing how things change.

I can't believe my last post was over two months ago.

Since then, I've;
  1. Assisted with teaching English to a class of Keren refugees from a camp on the Thai-Burma border (if you think your life's been tough, talk to some of these people - puts one's own "problems" into perspective!). Maybe as a result, they're some of the nicest people you could meet.
  2. Launched fynpyx, as a vehicle for selling my prints.
  3. Bought a business and home in Far North Queensland.
  4. Rethought my business model to try and fit-in with the new venture.
So, you could say I've been busy.

Once we've settled-in and got over the trauma of moving house, I'll have to get my head around the business and fynpyx and try and fugure out a way of leveraging them off each other. I suppose that first, I'll have to build up a portfolio of prints from up there.

Somehow I don't think there's a shortage of great scenery though - Rain forest, the Barrier Reef, gorgeous beaches and picture post-card islands. I think my biggest problem is going to be how to avoid clichéd pictures!

Should be fun!
