Stephen currently works in Sydney, doing a regular Monday - Friday job. He loves travel (preferably by train), and looks forward to the day when he knocks off from his job to start his round the world round bicycle trip. His favourite sports are cricket and Aussie Rules (AFL) football. One of his dreams is to toss the coin before the start of the Boxing Day Test Match in Melbourne, or just before an AFL Grand Final.
