My name is Benn Woodward.

I was born in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia when I was very young and it was cool.

My dad massages horses, my mum is the local tennis queen, my brother selects films for the Melbourne International Film Festival, my sister is a full time mum, my other sister owns and runs a vineyard and winery.

I dug my childhood except for when I fell off my bike and got 11 stitches in my head.

My teenage years were pretty normal I guess.

Since1988 I've lived in Perth.

I went to University in 1990 and completed a Communications degree.

In 1993 I took off to Europe and had numerous life changing experiences so in 1995 I thought I better do it again and then some.

In April 1999 I took out a mortgage on Cabin 4J and now, with the help of friends, it is a total phonk pad!

Since 1997 I hadn't had more than 2 days off work in a row so by 2000 it was time for a holiday don't you think?
