Living abroad!

[lukecooper]

Hi guys,

I’m an Aussie who spent most of 2005 in London and New York working. It had a profound effect on me.

Prior to this, in 2003, I lived in NY and also Somerset (south-west England). This also was great.

I’ve had an idea rolling around in my head for quite a while – I am keen to build something – a magazine/website for people like me who really enjoy and thrive on the challenge and thrill of living somewhere where you are foreign.

Before I am 30, I want to live in Canada and work, and hopefully Ireland also. I love it.

What I am keen to begin is going to involve a lot of time, patience and commitment (from me, that is!). I am wondering if anyone out there would be interested in getting involved in this project – I’m not asking for money, so relax! – but if you would like to contribute ideas, stories, thoughts, photos and help with circulation (ie. telling your mates in the pub), I’d be rapt.

Ideally I want to start this project very small and grow it slowly – I don’t wanna make a million bucks outta it, but I do have a huge interest in writing, reading and daydreaming about what is out there and available in this world.

Thanks for reading this, respond if you would like to get involved.

Cheers,

Luke

Never planned it that way.... some things just creep up on you.

Keen to head home in a year or two though and just bum around for a while.
