2011

I just got an email from my good friend Harry Sanna. Harry is, among other things, a freelance journalist, a fearless adventurer, a debonair gentleman and a demon in the sack. In the last couple of months he has filmed a documentary in New Orleans, covered the election in Haiti and bunkered down with soldiers in Afghanistan. Here is a cheery holiday snap of him caressing an RPG launcher.

(That's a rocket-propelled grenade launcher for anyone out there who isn't a member of the militia / addicted to Call of Duty. The thing fires grenades propelled by fucking rockets.)


Harry also threw together a video he filmed in Haiti. Check it out:

It's definitely a world away from the cushy Australian lifestyles that most of us lead. And while it doesn't inspire me to jump on the next plane to Haiti or Afghanistan, it has inspired my new year's resolution, which is to 'Make the most of it' (whatever 'it' may be). So thanks for that Harry.

If you want to check out more of Harry's stuff you can jump over to his website here.

  1. Thanks for the share and update. I heard Harry was working on an extended project in Haiti. It's great to see what transpired from it.

    I wholeheartedly agree with you on that new year's resolution. Bless that rapscallion.
