AusRob in LA

Blessed to Bless

About Me

I'm an expat Aussie living in LA and am enjoying life with my wife and boys. I love to travel (especially on Qantas) and experience different cultures, learning new and exciting ways to view the world. Life is too short to be bored or boring and there is always something waiting to be discovered. Music is important to me and my tastes are very eclectic, while I also enjoy sports, particularly anything Olympic-related. However, family comes first and I am blessed to have a wonderful one both where I live and across the world.

My Interests

Travel, church, sports and spending time with my wife and boys.

I'd like to meet:

People who are passionate about life and humanity, such as Bono.

Music:

Eclectic tastes - from alternative to classical and anywhere in between.

Movies:

I like a good laugh and a lot of independent movies, especially with subtitles. Some favourites would include Life is Beautiful and Moulin Rouge. I still enjoy Finding Nemo, even after losing count of how many times I've watched it with the boys, and enjoyed watching Happy Feet with them on the Imax screen.

Television:

24 is the best! The boys love the Wiggles and Sesame Street, while I'm hooked on anything Olympics. I'm looking forward to the 2nd season of "Life on Mars" on BBC America. I've been enjoying watching the cricket (on Directv) for the first time in almost 10 years, although the Aussies have started to lose ever since I started watching.

Books:

Jesus the Fool by Michael Frost; the Bible; Taken on Trust by Terry Waite; anything that will teach me something new and help me view life in a new and refreshing way.

Heroes:

My wife. My parents. My boys.
