Larissa Ham - freelance journalist Australian freelance journalist I write on everything from breaking news, to personal finance, travel, property and quirky stuff!

Hi, I'm an Australian freelance journalist writing for publications including The Age, Sydney Morning Herald, The New Daily and Forge magazine. When I'm not working, I like to post photos of the beach, mostly to annoy those in 9-5 jobs...

In my experience, an average Tuesday night in Melbourne doesn’t usually involve a round of ‘bonjours’, an amuse-bouche, multiple courses of indulgent fare – then a quick teleport to the wine regions of France.

Would you like a robot to unpack your dishwasher? Domain

Like the thought of having your own robot that can unpack the dishwasher? How about having an energy-efficient house that runs like its own power station, and has a QR code in the driveway for drone deliveries?
