From Broke to Blockchain: My Wild Ride as a FinTech Nomad 🌍💸

Once upon a time, I was just another broke backpacker, sleeping on hostel floors 🌏✈️, surviving on instant noodles 🍜, and crying into my empty wallet. I had nothing—except a dream to see the world and a crippling fear of 9-to-5 chains.

Then... disaster struck. Lost my passport in Bali 🇮🇩, got scammed by a "crypto guru" in Bangkok 🚨 (yes, I sent him Bitcoin 💔), and nearly got deported from Dubai for accidentally overstaying my visa. Rock bottom? Oh honey, I was digging.

But here’s the twist: I fought back. Taught myself coding in dimly lit internet cafes 💻, hustled as a freelance financial blogger (for exposure 😭), and—after 3 years of blood, sweat, and Excel sheets—I became a FinTech Advisor helping others avoid the scams I fell for.

Now? I’m living my digital nomad fantasy—advising startups from beachside cafés 🏖️, investing in ethical crypto projects 🌱, and finally affording that first-class ticket to redemption.

Moral of the story? Your mess can become your message. And baby, I’m full of messages. 💌

P.S. Still terrified of Excel. Some wounds never heal.
