An open letter to Darren Hayes (yes, the one from Savage Garden) OR My Return to Sausalito

Dear Mr. Hayes,

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Alex and I'm also from Australia. I have visited Sausalito twice now and I'm truly madly deeply in love with it. I want to live on a houseboat and bake bread to sell in my Sausalito bakery.

So, what does this have to do with you? Well, according to the Sausalito wikipedia page (and we all know, wikipedia never lies) you are a resident of this magical place. The place:

~ with the beautiful sky


~ where Fleetwood Mac's 'Rumours' was recorded

~ at the end of a beautiful ferry ride


~ with awesome fish and chips and view to match


~ where people say 'hello' to one another walking down the street.

Anyway, I really need not convince you. I'm sure you moved there for these exact same reasons.

I know it is a lot to ask since you barely know me, but I was hoping you might consider buying me a houseboat and a bakery and having a chat with immigration about getting me in on a more permanent basis (I'm sure they'd listen to you). In exchange I will always give you free bread, you can crash on the houseboat any time you like and I wouldn't be opposed to doing some light housework at your place (which I'm sure is lovely). Oh, and I'll totally buy all the albums you put out in the future (gotta keep those royalties coming in).

Anyhoo, let me know what you think or if there are any points you'd like to discuss.

Thanks Dazza.

Big hugs,
Alex
