Because it's more interesting than writing about my personal life.
Because I need to convince myself that staying here is the right thing for me, right now.
Because there are moments in my day-to-day, week-to-week life: morning swims at Bronte, singing in a Swans victory, the occasional sundowner at Opera Bar - when I realize there's nothing day-to-day about them.
Because the world clearly needs someone writing about cutting-edge topics like, "Can you really pick up at Woolies Neutral Bay using nothing more than a bunch of bananas and a cheeky grin?"
Because I've seen Sydney, not from a 727, but a 737, a A-330 and even a Dash-8 at night and it takes my breath away every time.
Because, dammit, I love this city.
