Calcutta Days
During our India trip this year, I have learnt a lot of things about Kolkata (or Calcutta). One of the things I learnt were that the name “Calcutta” was changed to “Kolkata” during the 1980’s-90’s. With this recording, we have started an original series we call: Calcutta Days. This is the normal father-son story experience…

Following passions
Recently, my father started his YouTube channel. He has been wanting to create a channel for a few months, and I feel pretty happy for him since he fulfilled what he wanted to do, since he used to, (and still does!), make videos with me and him on our tablet. His first video was a…

Stunning graphics, amazing realism, and a cameo appearance by Pelé himself! The credits feature Pelé telling us what happened next. This movie was all for the “ginga” in Brazil. Since…

Dental Courage
Today I went to Aucklands one and only, Lumino: The Dentists. I had a dental checkup because of a tooth cap that was causing me occasional eating problems. I really (and everyone probably does) dislike going the dentist. Even my dentist today, admitted that it’s not that “fun” going to a dentist. As I was…

My Father
My father, who most of you will know by my last post, is the writer of blog Ulysses in Utopia and is a writer, even if you can’t tell by his inspirational, life-based blog, he is funny, sarcastic and also really likes getting fit and into shape. According to his blog he is “a writer…
