Welcome to HKW! I believe in living life today better than yesterday. I was a medical doctor working 100+ hour work weeks. But when I realise I was doing it mostly for the money, I quit. Instead, I followed what excited me, and in the last 2.5 years I've built an internet business that has allowed me to live in 32+ countries. This is my personal blog to share my thoughts, strategies, principles, and lessons learned from my travels and pursuits in life. Questions/Suggestions? Email me :)
