In the 1990’s my brother sang in The Neptunes and one of their best songs was, ‘Down South’. It was about surfing, heading down south once you’ve finished the exams and having a good time before having to come back to Perth. Just saying ‘down south’ is enough. If you’re from Western Australia you know…

On 6PR with Burgo we made our way through the drinks menu of our travels. One of our callers described his experience of drinking Shochu in Japan which is a very spirited drink and left a lasting memory of his visit to Japan. A favourite roadhouse for a cold milkshake, a hidden bar for a…

For my second show with Burgo we decided that the new Air Asia flights from Darwin to KL were a great opportunity to talk about why KL makes a wonderful holiday destination. Enjoy the audio below and maybe just a few of my favourite KL pics.

We explored London’s West End, New York’s Broadway, The Loop in Chicago and even closer to home in Perth with opportunities to…

On 6PR with Rusty, we swam with dolphins, watched some bilbies and even made time to debate whether a cream bun should have mock cream or real cream. Enjoy listening to the show on the bar below. Let me know if it inspires you to head down to Dryandra or Rockingham or anywhere that’s got…

On 6PR on a recent summers weekend on the airwaves, we took to the skies to discover how getting into the air can inspire your travel or be an exciting part of it. It was also an opportunity to reflect on my air moments. I used to love accompanying dad out to the Narrogin airstrip…

From rites of passage and pilgrimage experiences like Gallipoli, Kokoda and the Western Front. From lesser known but no less important sites at Parit Sulong, Sandakan and Roebuck Bay; we visit these sites for understanding, respect and perspective.
