Welcome to Global From Asia episode 165, as always let’s discuss some updates and here’s Claire to share about Cross Border Summit news. We have great speakers and tickets are selling faster each day!
Mike has been cranking out content more than usual – fast video blogs, and people enjoyed the “Hong Kong vs China” video, and Claire likes the “Do you have Yellow Fever” video blog – we’ll link the up in the show notes.
Ok, and this week’s show we have Jason Green, he is an awesome dude Mike connected with on Facebook that had a very different way of getting educated growing up – traveling in his mom’s hippie van! He turned out ok, and Mike was especially curious as he has his 2 kids getting ready for school now.
