Eventually, his love for Australia, sparked in part by Peter Allen’s “I Still Call Australia Home,” brought him and his family back to Sydney to start a new chapter.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/l5Vjo5gfWC1dn2wXH4SBIPIbKYT6VYgRDwFpkncfTAk/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8xODQx/ZjY1ZjA3YzBmMzAy/NDM5NzdjY2MzNjkw/YWI5Zi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
