Thrillable Hours: Peter J. Kim, Executive Director of the Museum of Food and Drink
Welcome back to Thrillable Hours, my interview series about alternative jobs for lawyers. I have been sitting on this and other Thrillable Hours interviews during my recovery, and I am excited to get back to them. I have received emails from quite a few readers who were concerned that I might abandon my “life after law” series given my limited time at the computer. Not the plan! My life as a former lawyer is a big part of how I got to where I am today. I want to keep…

Rush Hour and the Elephant
I was about three months into my journey, sitting at an outdoor cafe in Phnom Penh and drinking a beer, monopolizing the wifi. It was rush hour, 5pm, and as I was hanging out I saw a full-grown elephant come walking down the street, minded by her trainer and wearing shoes made from recycled tires. The same thing happened the …

The Elephant in the Room at TBEX Asia
A travel blogger requested on Twitter that I write something about the political situation in Thailand, rather than merely “trolling” by sharing links about the human rights situation there. And while this may not seem remotely topical by now – it’s well-known that Thailand’s human rights situation has been deteriorating steadily since the May 2014 military coup – it is relevant. It’s not elephant rights that are the elephant in the room at TBEX Asia – it’s human…

Those Popular Blue Domes in Santorini, Greece
Popular Blue Domes Santorini Those blue domes in Santorini, Greece. After renting a 4X4 the morning once arriving in Santorini that became the first mission. Luckily, I woke up at 4pm just before the sunset later that day. It costs 25 Euros to rent the 4×4 per day and I obviously denied the helmet because I wanted to feel the breeze in my silky long hair. Located in the town of Oia (pronounced EE-AH) this is the epic picture I was after before arriving in Greece. What is ironic is that I found it by chance. I was looking for …

8 Getaways from Melbourne
I loved our time visiting Melbourne. It’s probably my favourite city in Australia, certainly the most liveable and if you spend a decent amount of time there you’ll soon see why it consistently ranks as the most liveable city in the world. Of course there’s the one obvious turn-off, you know, the crappy climate where it’s common to live through four …
