1) MY ETF KEYNOTE SPEECH

Extraordinary Travel Festival. I was honored to deliver a keynote address to the sold out ETF conference in Bangkok this weekend. I spoke about my Top 4 Lessons from a Decade+ as an itinerant digital nomad. The final lesson was the importance of standing up against the human rights abuses our own governments are committing around the world. I got a rousing applause from this global audience when hitting this final point at the end of the talk and calling for an end to the genocide in Palestine. This image is an Instagram story posted by one of the attendees. It was also was great to catch up with a number of Maverick Show guests in person and to meet many new people from around the world.

2) DESTINATIONS

Lagos, Nigeria is the global epicenter of Afrobeats and the city just pulsates with the rhythms of street performers and nightclubs. Known as the Heartbeat of West Africa, Lagos is a cultural hub and artistic mecca with an array of galleries and events that showcase contemporary African art. The culinary scene is also not to be missed. From bustling street markets serving traditional dishes like jollof rice to upscale restaurants offering fusion cuisine, the flavors of Lagos are incredible. I recommend staying for at least a month to really get into the rhythm of the city.
