I invite you to put your cares aside for thirty minutes a week and join me on a great journey. Strike out to find your fortune at the age of eighteen. Fight for a worthy cause. Fall in love. Experience the heartbreak of loss. Laugh. Cry. Feel the salt air on your face as you ride your surfboard on the beaches of Sydney.
