Hey Amy and Vincenzo,
Thanks for the great interview. The discussion on business expenses was specifically useful for me because I’m always wondering how to justify what are business expenses and what aren’t business expenses. The conversation helped me feel more confident on some of my previous assumptions.
I’ll reach out to you Vincenzo on a separate thread to see if you or your company can support with our bookkeeping/accounting.
You rock Amy!
With appreciation,
Ian
Awesome, Ian, I’m glad it was helpful! People like Vincenzo who have the professional expertise as well as an understanding of what it’s like to be a nomad are invaluable. I learned a lot from him too.
Oh – P.S. Fest300 is the project of Chip Conley. Here’s a great interview with him -> http://www.goodlifeproject.com/chip-conley-hotel-guru-near-death-survivor-global-festival-chaser/
Cool, thanks!
