1st recording with my daughter Kim (in Mandarin)

I was testing my mic so ended up recorded this with my daughter Kim who will be 3yo next month. I was asking her what she was eating and she was explaining to me it was bread with chocolate topping. I consider this moment was priceless and we will cherish this little audio content in our own way for the rest of our lives.

SHOOK CAFE Waterloo Sydney Australia

From a stranger to a "brother"

How to transfering the TRUST when referring to someone in the over commoditised market?

What you see is the validation of the TRUST.

I really didn't do much to help but sometime showing up was just enough during a brand new concept store soft opening.

Shout out to all the tech crew who were care enough to contribute their time over wechat and slack messaging.

It was just nice to know that you have people to back you outside of business hours when you might feel a bit helpless under the pump.

This is what you might missing out if you "shop" goods or service on price first.
