Hi.
I’m David Kavanagh: travel nut, newsophile, photographer, writer, and aspiring student journalist currently studying journalism and politics & international studies at Murdoch University in Western Australia. I was born in Germany, lived in Indonesia a little, but have spent most of my life in Australia. My dream is to one day work as a journo or foreign correspondent anywhere in the world for a (hopefully commercially independent) news company like ABC or VICE news.
I’m incredibly passionate about stories, great and small, and I believe that every person has a unique tale to tell. It’s this, as well as an insatiable curiosity about our world and how it works, that drives me. Part of this curiosity has led me to travel quite a lot – 19 countries so far – from India and Vietnam to the USA and France – and I hope to continue to travel until the day I die. I genuinely believe that travel is the most enlightening, satisfying thing one can do. It’s another reason I wanted to be a journalist.
Please join me as I make sense of this crazy world of ours.
Happy reading.
David
