Langkawi 2019 day #3 #workisover-rated Langkawi 2019 day #3 #workisover-rated was interview morning for me.

Shattered after that. And yes, it was a videoRead More

#workisover-rated and still a busy boy… So avidly job-hunting at the moment, a wee bit of funded travel back to gorgeous Melbourne, having lovely ‘exploring new place lunches with wifey’, dopping and collecting Jude from school, seeing the kids during the week, and maybe even dropping some shots from one’s golf handicap. So here isRead More

She calls our name and we come running, We have lost the voice we listened to, And there's a stillness now the rains stopped falling, And there's a sadness like we never knew, But we still see the shining of things. We love and miss you desperately Ni.

About Brian

I have worked in Telecommunications pretty much all my life, with good fortune to have worked literally across the world with amazing colleagues and clients from Sao Paulo, to Chicago, to LA, to UK, Europe and most recently to South East Asia and Australia.

I love to cook and to write and again for many years now have been writing a food blog, constantly morphing. I have also written a cook book for charitable reasons. I now also write a column for EXMag.sg a men's magazine with a focus on food - recipes and reviews. I do this under the tag-name of Semi-Naked Chef.

I am very focused at charitable work and CSR - having visited Cambodia 6 years running now to build houses on stilts for the less fortunate people there.

I have 3 kids - 2 half-Japanese and 1 half-Filipino.
