well, the first blog I started way back in like 2007 and it was about expat life in Moscow, I would share stories, musings, and how-to guides, like how to get work visas on the grey market. I had thousands of unique visitors each month and probably should have transitioned into youtube in 2012, but hey ho.

After moving to Bulgaria, I started a website all about how to product source, find items, import them, and sell them on amazon, basically all about private labeling. It was also quite popular and I would sell my services and it was a good supplement to my income.

sadly I became disillusioned and a bit disgusted with the whole space of 'sell stuff on amazon influencers' and I shut down the site and deleted my whole mailing list after I tried (and failed) to move into the health and wellness space

I like writing, as you can tell, but there's no point in a blog these days really, few people want to read long-form and the time and energy required are quite high.
