Location
Living on Koh Tao, a small island south of Thailand. Originally planned a 10-day stay but have been here almost two years.
I love the strong sense of community, the weather, and being minutes from beaches with rich marine life.
Work
I’m currently dedicating 100% of my time to build small projects.
You can check my daily log on WIP.
