I've learned quite a lot, as one would expect.

There’s the easy stuff — like how to pack and unpack more efficiently, how to navigate around, how to make friends.

And there’s the hard stuff — like what not to do so you don’t get robbed. Like what happened to me in South America. Twice actually.

I learned how to communicate with people whose first language isn’t English.

There's a tinglish (thai english) saying that I recently learned — chai bro. It’s basically a confirmation to let someone know you agree with them, but like more profoundly.

I'm sitting in a cafe in Chiang Mai right now, thinking about every time I had to chai bro myself forward — agree with my own soul — to get from where I was to where I am.

And I don't mean geographically.

I'm working on something.
Would you like to learn more?
