Show IH: I'm trying to make living abroad easier. Join me and 4 other founders in Bangkok for a month.

Thanks Leo!

Glad you found it interesting enough to come up with these questions. Let me try to answer them.

That sounds like a temporary local mastermind group?
I don't know what a mastermind group is. I think of it simply as just a group of people who can work online getting together and living in Bangkok.

Do you intend that the persons work together on a project?
It's not the intent but it could happen. In most cases I imagine most people would have their own work already lined up, whether it's continuing to work on an online business or starting one.

What would be the ideal makeup of a group in your opinion?
It's too early to say whether there's an ideal makeup or specific things that are required in a group to make this work. At the very least I think people's personalities need to be compatible and that's what the application process is for.

What will be your selection criteria?
I don't have a checklist of things I'm looking for besides good vibes and evidence of talent and work.

Why one month?
Less than one month and it's too short a time to make real friends that last. Over a month is too big a commitment for many people so I think the sweet spot is one month with the option of staying longer.

What will people have control over and what won't they have control over?
People are free to do whatever they want during the trip. At the end of the day, this isn't that much different from getting a group of friends together and traveling. You get to meet the people on the trip before everything is finalized so if you don't like the people you can choose to not go.

Can people join several times?
Yep.

How do you justify the 100 dollar per month fee?
Sure. I thought a lot about this. I asked myself how much I would have paid for a service like this when I was starting out and $100 is on the low end. I'm trying to serve people who feel the same pain that I did. For those who do, I think $100 for one month is a great deal.

I am curious to see, how everything plays out for you and what lessons you will learn!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I really appreciate it!

Say something nice to oliviert…
