Two deals in Bali made me realize how difficult it can be to buy or sell something when someone is leaving.
I bought a Vespa from a Spanish digital nomad. After about an hour negotiating, I discovered the vehicle tax had been unpaid for two years.
I believe in building things that last.
Brick by brick. Earn trust. Create value.
Money, status, and power may follow.
But they were never the point.
Build something of your own.
Make it worth believing in.
People says, “Forget the past to find happiness.” But some wounds become part of who we are.
Moving forward doesn’t mean leaving everything behind. It means living with what made you. I’m not denying the parts of me that brought me here.
Watching my life from the outside, scratching at the glass, trying to get in. Diminishing skies, waiting for a catastrophe of personality just to see beautiful and modern again. Maybe if I completely tear down the old ego, I will finally be myself again.

Venture building is pure macro vs ground contrast. One day it’s structuring investment theses; the next you’re solo in a polo shirt auditing why a delivery node broke down in Bali. 😂 Strategy yields zero alpha until the framework stops local fraud. No drawdown—we recalibrate win
4/ When there’s a match: chat, arrange a local meetup, inspect the item, and pay the seller directly. PassOn helps connect the two sides; it doesn’t replace checking the item or paperwork.
Why PassOn Exist, Is that Necessary? @passonbali
Imagine it’s Tuesday in Bali. Your flight is Sunday. A desk, kitchen gear, and surfboard still need a next home. You post in a few groups; replies land across different chats while the clock keeps moving.

3/ Buyers can browse listings, bid in auctions, or tell Gear Radar what they need. Sellers get automated Bali market price guidance, set their own final price, and choose a route: 24 hours, 7 days, or up to 30 days.
Those are target timelines—not sale guarantees.
