A small update :
So I'm starting my sole proprietorship from 2018 ( I'm starting in 2018 for fiscal reasons after my bookkeeper recommended this to me).
I will focus on the following things:
1. Dropshipping ( I calculated that I would need about 1000€ Start capital to start this successfully up, I already know which products I will sell. I will work with Aliexpress)
2. Freelancing ( If I don't make enough money with dropshipping at start , I will do some freelance work such as customer service, virtual assistant to have some cash coming in )
3. Niche websites ( I have a good idea to have a website about a certain product / country, If Freelancing and Dropshipping doesn't work I'll focus on this. This will be more for the long term, Dropshipping and Freelancing is meant to make fast money)
Note: I have around 8.000€ savings right now.
So where i'm heading now and what in worst case if I run out of money?
Asia. The exact destination has been undecided yet, the end of January I'm leaving. I'm just back for a week in West-Europe after 1 month and half in China travelling / visiting one of my main girls before. I've pinned it down to 2 destinations where I could work locally in Case I'd run out of money and still could save up some money: Vietnam and Taiwan, so probably I'm travelling first to Jakarta/Manilla/Cebu / Bangkok for a month and then head to Ho chi Min City or Taipei to have as my base. I'm aiming at teaching in Vietnam ( i'm a non native English speaker with 0% teaching experience but I heard it's pretty easy to get a teaching job in Vietnam) and in Taiwan I can have a working holiday visa for a year, so I can set up my base camp in Taipei and I want to bring my mandarin to another level, so Taipei is ideal for this. The only thing that gets to my mind is that Taipei gets a bit boring after a month of 2.
So why Did I chose for Asia instead of Latin America?
One of my gamegoals for 2018 is to increase my notch count significantly and collecting a lot of flags. Asia is a better option for this than Latin America. Also, I want to take my mandarin to another level, so plenty of oppurtunities for this in Asia. Also, safety and local work oppurtunities are way better in Asia. I don't see myself working like example in Mexico or Colombia for 500$ in worst case scenario.
I'm excited and a bit scared at the same time for this adventure .
