While Portugal is still my residency and I love spending time there, I have been on and off living in SEA now for the past three years so I thought it might make sense to share with you my experience and tips on living and working here. I absolutely love it. That being said, I think it definitely takes time to get used to how thinks work here. If you haven’t seen the previous post - yes I kinda started vlogging some of journey nomading and startupppping (let’s call it a DLOG?! horrible name I know).

 

Working in SEA

Thought I keep the ball rolling and share with you a bit about where you can get your work done while nomading through Southeast Asia. Perhaps you haven't yet heard about the last option.

 

Living in SEA

In this video I'll share with you my experience about:

  • the cost of living here in SEA
  • a room you can impress your dropshipper/forex friends with
  • give you some tips and tricks making the most out of living in South East Asia
 

Mindi condo tour

Curious to see how my condo complex looks like in Saigon? Let me show you a bit of the top floor which is sorta prototypical to condos in various bigger South East Asian cities. This is definitely a fancier one but there's plenty of these to find in places like Bangkok. What do you think about leaving your house if it has a gym, sauna and pool?

 

Finding condos in SEA

I got a couple of questions on how to find apartments like I showed you in the previous video so I thought I'll share with you some tips and tricks. I'm also going over my extreme opsec measurements. Also I hear you! Next vid I’ll remove the crazy black jumping box.

 

Cons of living in SEA

I love sharing all the positive sides of nomading through South East Asia but I think it’s equally important to also address some of the negatives. In this DLOG (we gotta live with that name know) I’ll go over my 3 biggest cons and one common misconception I keep hearing about which I think is absolutely not true.

Want updates from me?

I occasionally send out an email with updates about my startup journey or when I have an interesting story to share.
