Hey Mates, 

I have been in Melbourne for about two weeks and it has been great so far. I am still trying to get the hang of finding the right busking spots because there are so many really cool places to play. I think I have it under control soon. The people are really friendly and I finally moved into this place in a spot called St. Kilda, which is right by the beach. I wrote a couple songs so far while being here in Australia. I really need to figure out a way to record them over here since all of my recording equipment is back in Maryland. I don’t really plan on going back to the States until May so that I can dodge winter. It would be pretty sweet to just dodge winter for a few years; I’ll figure it out. I will be trying to keep you posted as my adventure continues to unravel. Thanks so much!
