These past couple of weeks I keep getting reminded again and again that adaptability, creativity, patience and compassion are so incredibly valuable. ♥️
Come to Georgia!
Gorgeous Caucasus mountains, friendly people, delicious food, fascinating 8,000 year old wine culture, unique architecture, history and much more.

We really enjoyed Ubud. Some complain that the Starbucks and other retail shops make this small village feel less authentic.
But it doesn’t take much effort to look beyond that to find many quiet spots and local experiences to enjoy.

I've been freelancing remotely for almost a decade now, while traveling in 60+ countries. This is your chance to ask me anything!
Hope to see you in the Being Freelance Facebook Community for this LIVE Q&A. 😉

I love it when we find a hidden gem. We had lunch at a local family-run restaurant a short walk from Ubud. It was totally worth going out of the way for. 🇮🇩 https://t.co/xHVXU8iMYI
Sometimes people grimace when I say Bangkok is one of my fav cities.
I get that. Bangkok can be hard to love.
It’s huge. The heat is oppressive. Beeping motorbikes, a cacophony of smells.
BUT here are some of the things I LOVE about the Big Mango.

Thursday is Balinese New Year and we are required by law to stay in the hotel with the curtains drawn so the evil spirits assume the island is deserted and pass over it.
I don't want to mess with demons and evil spirits, so looks like Thursday will be a quiet night for us! 😨
Travel Tip:
If someone doesn't speak English very well, getting frustrated and being rude to them isn't going to make them magically learn it.
Find another way to communicate, or ask someone else.
