Hi Nathan, Welcome to Steemit, and I'm sure you're going to really like it here.

Sixteen years ago, like you, I left home with a suitcase and headed to Thailand. Now, 16 years later, I'm still there and I've never looked back. Making that jump and travelling overseas to experience another way of life is something which is unbeatable. I still never know what the future might bring, so I only live one year at a time here, but once you get used to the Asian way of things, it's quite difficult settling back into life back home.

I look forward to your future posts.
