On Location | Startup Ecosystems & Cultural Immersion
- Most of my travel starts with work—whether events, ecosystem building, or collaborations. Once on the ground, I dive deep into the local rhythm, culture, and business landscape—exploring what makes each place tick beyond the obvious. I don't embellish. Everything here comes from firsthand experience or people I trust deeply. Some of this is quick impressions; some of it goes deeper. It depends on the place—and how long I stayed.
