Sydney

The fact that I have a ton more work meetings in Sydney could mean two things:
1. People like meetings in Sydney and talk through collaboratively
2. I am a real nigel in New York.

It's great to be back, and having two weeks means, for both work and play, there is a bit more time to enjoy it. I have again sampled the goods of the fish market (so fresh!) and visited the old haunts of Privilege (so cheap!). Family is good, friends are good, work is good. Everything is just...good.

And perhaps that is why I'm not so keen on coming back here quite yet. It feels like settling and I'm not ready to settle. I feel like doing challenging things, to get out there amongst it, to have stories to tell my kids. Whether that is in New York or not, that probably depends on the job. But New York seems a good place to start.

The time constraint of my stay there had previously not felt as tight as it does now. It's time to hit it.
