After I quit my job, I started doing some research. In fact, when I was in the four-wheel drive in Mongolia, I had decided to go to South America despite the fact that I didn’t know any Spanish word including ‘Hola!’ The couple also said I didn’t need to speak perfect or fluent Spanish to … Continue reading Sandy, I Will Remember You

The Diverse Gobi Desert
I woke up in my tent. The couple was talking and I thought to myself, ‘nah, let me lie in this comfortable tent for a little while longer and let the couple spend sometime with each other.

What a big difference!

Rich Dad, Poor Dad.
Robert Kiyosaki, the author of 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad', always criticizes that schools never provide us financial education. Now, as a teacher (or a coach), I want to give my students some ideas. No, I didn't teach them how to get rich. Rather, I gave them a surprise [sinister laugh]. I gave them a topic. … Continue reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad.
