I brought in the New Year on my knees. Not in prayer. Not in reflection. Not in some deep, symbolic, “new year, new me” moment. Nope. My clumsy self fell while running to catch the fireworks. Me and Sparkle had to laugh because what else could we do? Some people enter the year with elegance. […]

December did not ease me out of the year. It came with full rooms, food security conversations, SBCS students, book nerves, camera discomfort, a last minute training in Miami, roti packed for the road, Sparkle flying in, and Florida deciding to have a cold front like it had something to prove. So yes. December was

November felt like one of those months where Trinidad and Tobago kept reminding me that I still have plenty of home left to see. Which is a strange thing to admit. You can live in a country your whole life and still not know parts of it. You can drive the same routes, go to

August, September, and October felt like me quietly rebuilding the base again. Not with one big announcement. More with meetings, interviews, grocery runs, government forms, soup tips, and one hike where somebody decided burpees belonged in the bush.

By July, I had been in Thailand for six months and somehow had not done half the things people probably assumed I was doing every day. People hear “Thailand” and imagine you waking up every morning to temples, boat rides, markets, beaches, and spiritual awakenings. Meanwhile, I was going to the gym, working, eating, dealing

I had to look back at my video folders to remember what actually happened because the month felt like one long stretch of gym days, work days, errands, packing, rain, food, networking, unexpected moments, and me trying to keep myself together. I was going to the gym, working
Yiwu. This one?This one had everything. I got sick. Proper sick. The kind where you start questioning your life choices and your immune system at the same time. For a full week I committed to Traditional Chinese Medicine like my life depended on it. Because honestly… it felt like it did. We’re talking: Acupuncture (yes,

April did not ease me in. April threw me outside, soaked me with water, flew me to China, spun me around, and said:“Figure it out.” Songkran → Joy I Didn’t Plan For Nobody prepared me for Songkran properly. This is not “a festival.”This is a full country reset disguised as a water fight. You step

I struggled to rest. Not because I didn’t have time but because I don’t know how to be still without feeling like something is falling behind somewhere. Even being here, in a completely different environment, my default setting hasn’t changed. Most days I’m either working… or thinking about work. And if I’m honest, those two

November tested me in every possible way. From fighting for forex, scrambling to secure my Digital Nomad Visa (DTV), handling business chaos, unexpected health concerns in the family, and even some very questionable life decisions, this month had it all. And yet, I survived. Barely, but I did. The Never-Ending Forex Struggle By now, I
