Starting my journey in South America

[Nick S]

Hey everyone!

My name is Nick

I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself to the community and perhaps seek a little advice.

I am 23 years old. I have graduated debt free with an I.T. degree. I have 15k in savings, and have a location independent english tutoring job that covers my basic living expenses.

I am currently living in South America and have decided to do so for 3 reasons:

1. Lower cost of living: by living in this part of the world my daily expenses are nearly cut in half, so I can cover my living costs by working about 20 hrs/week thus freeing up time to work on my business endeavors.

2. Second passport: given the state of the western world, I think getting a second passport in the developing world will open up more opportunities in the future and help with taxes when I have a successful business.

3. Learning spanish: I think this will be a useful skill in both my personal and business life.

Right now I occupy my time with working, learning, gym, and working on my blog.

My blog is geared mainly towards business, social skills, and lifestyle from the perspective of an introvert (INTJ/sigma male).

Right now the plan is to build up the blog and develop a brand out of it.

I'm following the Bold and Determined approch of focusing on producing good content first, gathering an audience, then start releasing products (although I have affiliate links now).

I know it's going to take awhile to make money going the blogging route so I was wondering, if you guys were in my shoes would you do anything different?
