This week's guest is my cousin Jacob who came with me to Thailand back in 2008 when I decided to quit my job and move across the world to pursue my passions.  We talk about what my family thought of me making the move, overcoming fears and objections, the similarities of my parent's immigrating from Taiwan to America and about traveling in Chiang Mai, Phuket and the Phi Phi Islands.
