Sydney - the other side
"Sydney, it's a bit like Melbourne. More money, less society, more beauty, less substance. Better weather, minus the golf ball hail storms. Illogical urban planning, with buses polluting. Restaurants with views, and long queues. Bigger nightlife, with little soul. Slaves to fashion with little sense of personal style. Leggy blondes that show lots of skin and not much within. More stockbrokers, publicists and unwarranted pretension, with not a hint of discernment or culture." Jessica Smith, Sydney Magazine (SMH), April 2008
City of Haunting Dreams
"Venice appears to us as if in a dreams, its breathtaking architecture and overwhelming weight of history challenging the soulless uniformity of our modern-day world. This unique city of so many contradictions, of shifting light and dark shadows, subtle movement and fleeting glances, quickly seduces us with its timeless beauty. It is only later that we become aware of its other, more sinister side." Simon Marsden, Venice City of Haunting Dreams 2001
