What a story bro, didn't know that you tried that life at end of the world I can say.
Never was outside my country, but I think it was great experience for you.
You have right, we thrive when we lose money. Then we think bigger, we look into out mistakes and we make decision to make things better.
Nobody is successful from start. There so many dissapoiments during your way to success. That makes you stronger and change your thinking. Many people give up, many of them are just to weak to live like that. But the only thing, which really matter is having goal and passion who drives your life over your own limit.
You are a great person, who help people a lot and for that you are a worth person for many people.
I wish you all the best in your crypto journey and in real life!
