Video: Australia & New Zealand

September 23, 2015 by Colin Leave a Comment

Video: Australia & New Zealand

Over the past few years that I've been traveling, I've taken terabytes of video. But in that same timeframe, I've had my primary DSLR stolen at the Melbourne Train Station (not to be replaced for nearly a year) and my GoPro stolen in Barcelona (yet to be replaced, shit's expensive yo). In Brisbane, … [Read more...]

Go Overseas: Insider Tips for a New Zealand Working Holiday

Last year, I spent five months living out of a shitty little car in the wild South Island of New Zealand. I was usually cold and wet, and my car, a '96 RVR I named Cherry Bomb, was more dud grenade than flashy nuke. I never had enough food, and more than once I coasted down hills just trying to make … [Read more...]

5 emotions you feel when moving into your car

Horror The feeling of dread that permeates your whole body, a primal understanding that you fucked up beyond recovery As I drove through the streets of Auckland, my mind drifted inevitably back to Kerouac. He started this all. This dream of being a writer, this pseudo-On The Road adventure of … [Read more...]

Who should I see from the Laneway Festival 2015 lineup?

December 6, 2014 by Colin 2 Comments

Who should I see from the  Laneway Festival 2015 lineup?

When I first got to New Zealand, I bitched and moaned about the lack of good live music opportunities. I'm a fucking idiot. The Laneway Festival 2015 lineup is ridiculous. Look at this. Look at this lineup, right? It's nuts. For a one day festival, there are so many amazing acts that it's just about … [Read more...]

The Elsewhere Man Himself

This handsome devil's coming to a city near you.

My name's Colin. A few years ago, I decided to combine my love of travel, telling stories, and getting into mischief into one endeavor. If it's a weird festival or even weirder food, you'll find me on my way to try it. Five continents and a few stomach-turning pitstops later, I've got it down pretty well. Learn more about my adventures here, if you dare.
