Hi anzibon. Bit of a tongue-in-cheek dig there, though the nightlife in Canberra is wild, so I'm told. For everyone elses info, Canberra is actually Australia's national capital like D.C or The Hague. That's where the similarities end. The rest is very flat, quiet urban grasslands. Great looking countryside.

But enough of the travelogue. :thumbsup:

Wow - have to admit, Ben Snow definitely seemed to be in the right place at the right time, but of course he made the efforts to be in that right place :P Amazing to see that someone from the bottom end truly can work their way up to the top guns.

Thanks for the article.
