Andy(@andyyy):For a variety of reasons, and as I've grown older, living in Asia has become more appealing than South America. Better waves, cheaper, timezone is actually insane for deep work, and not intimidating like many SA places I've been. There's a lot more nuance here, but man, consistent bombing waves and cheap Asian food is unparalleled. I'm sure a few weeks in a surf village in Central America would change my mind though...or, maybe not.
