How many countries have you lived in?

 this a question that I get quite a number of times and I never really think of it until now, I have lived in total of 6 different countries as permanent resident, not counting in short stints of a few months here and there, so I have moved all and settled down 6 times, that's more than most people do in their lifetime not even close, so the question is why? the short answer is that I have some gipsy blood running in my veins, or curiosity of what's out there is bigger than stability and security at one place, being a chef might have something to do with it as well, but I know for sure that this have made me stronger and more resilient and shaped me into a different mold.

how about my family you ask? yes, it has not been easy for sure but at the same time it has given them an opportunity to visit parts of the world that they might never done otherwise, so yes educational and eye-opening experiences for sure, happy to be apart? not always!!

when people say that my English is weird and bad, strange I always tell them, yes for sure but to simplify my language is the only way how people in Egypt, Kenya, Thailand., China, Indonesia, Vietnam, Russia and other places would understand me, so leave your bloody Oxford English at home get in to the real-world guys!

BTW English is my 3 language, how many do you speak? 

So to you all young people out there, be brave try other locations and countries and challenge yourself as person and human being, you will learn a lot from it I promise.

here are some photos from my bike rides in Singapore, salute life amigos.
