Brent Anderson, Regional General Manager, South and SEA, Tourism Australia turns to his blender every time he's lazy or in a rush, to make a smoothie on his way out of the door.

Here are a few of his other favourite things.

Music
Blink 182 and Cakes, an Indie-alternative band from Queensland. They write nice lyrics and good melodies.


Book
My favourite of all time is 'Magician' by Raymond E Feist. The first one in the series is a real epic and a bit of escapism, an easy read. I’ve gifted it to all my nieces and nephews.

Gadget
My blender because when I’m lazy and in a rush, I just make a smoothie on my way out of the door. It is my favourite gadget because it’s easy to clean and is not cumbersome.

Movie
'My Left Foot', starring Daniel Day Lewis. It’s an inspiring movie, with a lot of humour and one I didn’t expect to enjoy.

Adventure Sport
Tandem skydiving in Wollongong with skydive the beach where you land next to or on a beach. The first few seconds are absolute catatonic numbness.

How Many Books Have You Read From Virat Kohli's List?
1/4

Recently the Indian captain made headlines for his reading choice during the opening Test between India and the West Indies.

Team India captain Virat Kohli wears many hats – batsman, model, fashion curator - but one title that few associate with him is bookworm. When he’s not playing cricket, practising his swing or hitting the gym, the right-handed batsman loves to relax with a good book, as evidenced by this tweet.

We take a look at some of the books that make the ‘nerd’ in Kohli happy.

After being dismissed for nine in the first innings on Day 1 of the ongoing Test between India and the West Indies, the Indian captain had plenty of time on his hands for a little light reading.

Kohli was spotted reading 'Detox Your Ego: Seven Easy Steps to Achieving Freedom, Happiness and Success in Your Life' by Steven Sylvester, much to the amusement of India’s netizens who have long trolled Kohli for his arrogance.

Peppered with sports anecdotes, the book helps readers understand their underlying motivations and anxieties and improve the way they achieve their goals.

A few years, Kohli made headlines when he recommended that fans and followers read a book that had made a huge difference to his life - ‘Autobiography of a Yogi’ by Paramahansa Yogananda.

“I love this book. A must read for all those who are brave enough to let their thoughts and ideologies be challenged. The understanding and implementation of the knowledge in this book will change your whole perspective and life. Believe in the divine and keep marching on doing good deeds #onelove #begratefu l#helponeanother.” He said, recommending the book on social media.

Regarded as a spiritual classic, ‘Autobiography of a Yogi’ traces the life of Paramahamsa Yogananda and his encounters with spiritual figures in the East and West.

It was the only e-book found on the Apple co-founder Steve Jobs's personal iPad 2. Jobs had first read the book in high-school and discovered it again while staying at a guesthouse in India. The book became a major part of Job’s life and he is said to have reread it every year.

In the lead-up to the 2011 World Cup, as part of a joint initiative by the ICC and 'Room to Read' to promote global literacy and access to books, Kohli revealed another favourite tome on his reading list.

“I like Andre Agassi’s autobiography. The author tells the story of his remarkable career, which featured many ups and downs. The best part about the book is that at no point does the author try to project himself as a ‘superhuman’. He is as human as you and me, but a champion and an inspiration,” said Kohli.
