From Monday 8 February, I will be working as a full-time journalist at Haymarket Media’s North Sydney office. I’m very glad to be rejoining the team and look forward to a productive year ahead.

After having spent most of the year reporting from the U.S., I’m really looking forward to wrapping up here and going home. I miss living near friends and family, and plan to settle in Sydney permanently from mid-December onwards.

My year in the U.S. has been an invaluable experience. I’ve attended a few conferences, met several very nice people, and got to see some very cool robotics research in action on a prestigious university campus.

Many thanks to the team at Haymarket for the opportunity to contribute from overseas, and for being so pleasant to work remotely with.

I recently was commissioned to build an online catalogue for a medical start-up in Singapore. It was my first experience with Wordpress, and I was immensely impressed by its simplicity, power and ease of use.

So enamoured was I that when the project was over, I had to have a Wordpress-powered site of my own. So here it is

Farewell, Blogger. It’s been fun.

I’m temporarily reporting from San Francisco to get a first-hand taste of Silicon Valley.

The city suits me very well. Why haven’t we got Yelp, Google Maps for public transport and fast, cheap Internet connections in Sydney?

I have settled into my new home in Las Vegas and am ready to dive into science and technology news from here!
