Operating range

Thirty‑five countries, read as systems rather than sights: why a place works, who builds there, where its capital comes from. Eight of them changed how he operates.

China

Scale is not the same thing as intent.

Sourced Pokémon cards in Beijing and Shanghai and resold them in Europe at roughly double the purchase price. Shanghai made the scale of Asian finance visible. A missed connection in Shenzhen became a self‑planned tour of the companies that built the city: DJI’s Sky City, then Tencent. One felt like a founder’s obsession made physical; the other like an office park.

Philippines · 2026 · Observe

Philippines

Most of the world runs on far thinner margins than Europe remembers.

Poverty seen up close rather than in statistics, and a different operating reality for business, infrastructure and everyday life.

Singapore · Observe

Singapore

Order is a design decision, not a national character.

A city‑state where rules, infrastructure and public space read as one deliberately engineered system.

Australia · Solo

Australia

Distance is a stress test for self‑reliance.

The furthest point from home: a different time zone, no safety net nearby, everything decided and solved alone.

Vienna · 2025 · Work

Austria

Abroad, a process either explains itself or breaks.

Ran events and operations for a cultural venue in Vienna, co‑organised a street‑art festival and opened a partnership with BEFRIEND Vienna.

London · 2023–24 · Sell

United Kingdom

At a trade show, you have three seconds and one sentence.

Represented 3D Estate as an exhibitor at the London PropTech Show, selling PropTech to an international audience.

Tromsø · 2023, 2024 · Debate

Norway

One week can redirect a trajectory.

The European Youth Parliament session in Tromsø was the week that started the travelling. Back in 2024, he put questions to Norway’s Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs at an open university seminar.

Slovakia · Study

Slovakia

Living abroad starts as logistics and ends as self‑knowledge.

Erasmus: studying and living in another country’s system rather than visiting it.
