I dont see why, if you look at how the Australian culture and psyche is, that we cant be amongst the most generous, from the grassroots up, nations in the world.

I see it everyday and it can stop. The solution is education, training and a guaranteed opportunity.

I've been in Hamburg for about ten years and I just feel at home.

Music is there to enrich your life and make you aware of things in a slightly different way.
