  • Join me on an exciting journey to Singapore! In this vlog, we fly from Bangkok to Singapore for a few days of exploration, including supporting a close friend fighting for the WBC Muay Thai title. The trip also features a stay at the luxurious InterContinental Hotel, reflections on my online business journey, and some incredible experiences in this vibrant city.
    We kick off by checking into our stunning hotel and even running into a Singaporean actor-turned-taxi-driver with an inspiring story to share. Watch as we celebrate small victories like recovering a forgotten laptop and enjoying the travel, work-life balance, and spontaneous adventures.
    I also take a moment to talk about how online work has transformed my life, allowing me to travel, work from anywhere, and meet inspiring people worldwide. If you’re passionate about entrepreneurship and love traveling, this video is for you!

    Omg, I can't believe Peter Yu was your driver! He was a TV leading man when he was younger, went through a messy divorce and strayed a little. But he's back in show business and has starred in several award winning arthouse movies like "Snow in Midsummer", "A Land Imagined" and most recently, "Wonderland".

    Singapore is the perfect example 💯 since it has security (where one can go out safely at night, it is a good place to raise a family), progress, prosperity, good leaders, stability and beauty because they have good leaders. Singapore should be an example to Follow all the countries in the world 🌎 to be better and safer for the people. Greetings from Chile

    My partner left his laptop on a plane. After several frantic calls and days later, nothing. He bought a new one upon return to Changi but voila, one month later, his laptop was found. Got to have this philosophy "It's not life and death. It's only money and money can be earned."

      What's wrong with that and there is nothing shame of driving a taxi. Look at him and he is proud of what he is doing and not shy away. Many of us do certain things for a good reason and as long as one dont resort to crime, we have to give every worker due respect. My dad was a bus driver, and I am not ashamed to tell people about it.
