by Mohd Danish Yusuf

The journey took me 9 months while I was nomading in India, Singapore & Indonesia.

Working remotely from my laptop and traveling was the best thing I enjoyed doing for work & lifestyle balance.

Here is the complete story about this.

    Good idea, good exit, good job!

    But I think you could have bootstrapped your website and earn $2k+ MRR fairly quickly
