Greetings from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia! I hope you enjoyed the Thailand series! This weekend I'm posting my first video from Malaysia. Please let me know if there's anything special you'd like me to cover here. Lots of exploring to do! :-)

When you travel full-time, through all sorts of climates, it’s important to optimize your packing! I started this trip in the European winter season, so I have some winter clothes I don’t need anymore and also am tempted to buy something new occasionally. The ideal (but very pricy) solution is to mail things back home. But another way cheaper option is leaving things behind and altering your current clothes. I bought a t-shirt in Egypt but asked a Thai lady to make it look like my favorite tank from Costa Rica (which will be left behind… finally), my H&M sweatpants are now thigh-guy summer shorts and I’ve substituted my “teaching polo” for something I’d actually wear out of the house, eliminating dead weight. The thai shirt is much more lightweight too! Big travel upgrade and the alterations were only 6 USD! 🫢

It's my birthday! The big 4.0! Currently working on this week's video called "Living Slow in Northern Thailand" and this tasty Pad Thai is featured in it. It was only 1.50 USD! If you wanna cover it as a b-day treat, PayPal code is linked here! ;-)

As some of you may know, I've been in Thailand for about 40 days now. It feels incredibly good to be back in one of my favorite countries! Here are a few shots from my time in Bangkok. The first video from my Thailand series is already out and it's about the WILDEST water fight in the world: Songkran, or Thai New Year! The second video comes out this Sunday and it'll give you a glimpse into what budget life is like in Bangkok. I'm currently in Chiang Mai and I can't wait to start filming around here. Hope you'll follow along on what promises to be an extensive South-East Asian adventure!

Did you know I have a free newsletter? I only send them out sporadically to talk about travel plans or updates. I sent one out today talking about where I'm headed for the remainder of 2024 and also my new travel service. Here's the link if you'd like to stay in the loop!

So THIS HAPPENED the other day! A huge thanks to everyone following along! I always try to imagine myself in an auditorium, speaking to this amount of people and it's terrifying. So to be able to reach this many people here is both humbling and an awesome opportunity. I hope to keep inspiring you to AWAKEN THOSE TRAVEL DREAMS! 10K is up next!

Huge thanks to David R! I'm always very appreciative of when you guys get me coffees! Every little bit that comes in helps me create more content and consequently help more people. A LOT of work and money is put into each of my videos and I only make around 70 dollars monthly from views, so your generous donations help keep the cameras rolling! As usual, thanks to everyone following along, whether you can donate or not! AWAKEN YOUR TRAVEL DREAMS! Much love!
