Medical, Surgeon, Through

Sydney is rather like an arrogant lover. When it rains it can deny you its love and you can find it hard to relate to. It's not a place that's built to be rainy or cold. But when the sun comes out, it bats its eyelids, it's glamorous, beautiful, attractive, smart, and it's very hard to get away from its magnetic pull. Baz Luhrmann

Love, Away, Very

Tecumseh

Strong, Country, Wiped
