Covershot by Camilla Nicholls. Be super like Camilla and send your covershots to melbourne.hello@thethousands.com The last few days of winter are here! Bout time. Final winter advice: don’t jump over puddles after eating laksa, prepare to eat a parma in a jaffle, try taco rice from a sunny Japanese island, listen to slacker cowpunk and read about accidental discharge. Next week it'll be Spring and we’ll do it all again.
