“….that’s. so. fabulous….” – Singapore Event 2010

On the 26th of November 2010, I was lucky enough to fly and speak in Singapore for an amazing event held on the 28th called “One Night for Timor Leste”

It was held at the stunning “POD” in the National Library Building in Singapore – with a 360degree view of the city! Breathtaking!

An evening where everyone experienced the beauty of the young, resilient nation of Timor Leste ~ through art exhibitions, cultural showcases and the screening of our documentary “SPINNING DREAMS” based on the 410km Tour de Timor mountain bike race. The whole event was aimed to raise funds for the women weavers and craft-workers in East Timor. I am proud to say that the Gone Cyclin foundation has managed to raise almost SGD$50 000 for the cause. WOW!

As it was the first screening of the documentary – I was extremely nervous. We filmed the Tour De Timor in late Septemeber – I was in Bali in October – and then the screening was in Novemeber. That meant I needed to complete the edit, the audio mix, and a grade – in a month.

Well – luckily – everyone was completed in time – and the documentary was a huge success!

I’m looking forward to hold a similar event in Melbourne in February 2011!!!!!!!!!!

And along with the melbourne event will be the OFFICIAL WEB-SERIES RELEASE! CANT WAIT TO SEE THE GLOBAL REACTION ONLINE!

I also gave a presentation at the event – which was a wonderful opportunity. It was so inspiring to be able to meet and speak to so many amazing and talented people.
