About • Yes Thomas!
Hi, I’m Thomas.
My name is Thomas Zih and I live in Sydney with my wife Virginia and Scooby the cavoodle. Yes Thomas! is where I park all the things I tinker with – from electronics and money stuff to travel and random fixes.
Apart from loving my beautiful wife and wonderful daughter, I spend my time pulling things apart, fixing them, making coffee, planning the next trip, and writing up anything I find useful so it might help someone else.
And yes, in case my lovely wife is checking whether I got the priorities right: I did, loh poh poh – thank you for being my partner in crime in this life adventure.
Snapshots from Our Adventures
Virginia – The nicest person you can ever meet
Many of the stories on this site start with, “Virginia and I went to…” or “Virginia said I should fix…”. She’s the one who keeps me grounded while also saying “yes” to a lot of my crazy ideas.
Whether it’s standing in the middle of a bullring, wandering through European laneways, or just sharing a quiet coffee at home, she’s absolutely at the heart of Yes Thomas!.
Scooby the Cavoodle
Scooby is the furry family member, professional treat negotiator and occasional photo-bomber. He doesn’t write any of the articles (yet), but he does appear in quite a few photos.
Why I Started Yes Thomas!
I started this website to share some of the things I’ve learned (and broken, and fixed again) in areas I’m interested in – electronics, money, travel, coffee, random repairs and more.
If even one article here saves you a headache, a few dollars, or gives you an idea for your next project or trip, then it’s worth it. Enjoy looking around!
