Check out my Community Spotlight interview with TXP Mag. I’ll be contributing as an editor for their Site Watch column, which profiles exceptional websites built with Textpattern.
Well, I landed safely in Denpasar, Bali at midnight on February 8th. I had nothing but an iphone with cellular data turned off to avoid roaming charges, and instructions to take a taxi to the Pepito Supermarket to meet my Airbnb host. I exited the airport with my fingers crossed, as I was not provided a specific address. Am I mad? I am going to meet a stranger named Marco late at night in a parking lot in a city I’ve never been, and get on his motorbike with my backpack and laptop bag. This is irresponsible, right?

Well, I began my journey with a 3 day visit to Seoul, South Korea, before heading to Bali on the 11th of February.
To recap… I’ve been spending the last 2 months living on a friend’s couch. I sold all my worldly possessions, and bought a ticket to Bali for 3 months. Because, hey, why not. It’s cheaper than living in Vancouver to say the least, and since my work allows me to work from anywhere… enough said.

In late October I returned from my first trip to Asia. I had a 2 day stopover in Hong Kong, and then headed to Thailand where I got to meet up with a client of mine, as well as a fellow twitter follower.
This was definitely a pivotal trip for me, having never been to Asia before. I have already decided to return to Asia in February for a longer visit, but more on that later :)

At the end of October I had the pleasure of attending Marie Forleo‘s Rich Happy & Hot Live in New York. (I designed and built the WordPress website back in August.) The conference delivered a plethora of smart and sexy business advice from a knock-out line-up of speakers, including Danielle Laporte, Julie Cottineau, Laura Roeder, Josh Pais, Regena Thomashauer, Russel Simmons, Kris Carr, Simon Sinek, Derek Halpern, and Ramit Sethi! (that’s me on the right, after a much needed new haircut :)

I have a 4 week vacation which starts at midnight tonight, and I have been working frantically to tie up loose ends before I leave. I don’t have a laptop, so I won’t be bringing work with me.

Beautiful sketchnotes by Mike Rohde of rohdesign at An Event Apart Minneapolis.
This picture makes me so happy! The ultimate nerd moment captured. This is the original “Starbuck” on the left (Dirk Benedict, age 66!), from the original Battlestar Galactica series, with Starbuck on the right (Katee Sackhoff) from the latest series.
