#12 Stepping into Tomorrow
When I was in my early twenties, I took a job that had me working for an NGO in Bangladesh and then in Thailand. I arrived in Thailand right before Christmas, and I spent the holidays on the beach in Krabi Province. I then travelled to Koh Samui, which at the time was a quieter and less overrun island than Phuket.
#8 The Accountant, the Boss and the Lawyer
I lived in France for three years. Much of that time was spent working for a business school as the incoming students’ coordinator. It was a really interesting job. There was rarely a dull moment as I dealt a lot with students who were from another culture and who often had random questions they came by my office to ask. In some ways, I was a kind of therapist to them, helping them solve problems and providing an ear when they wanted to talk.
