Tried to bootstrap a few travel-related ideas since I do have plenty of traveling experience but it seemed the local market wasn't ripe (macro-economically), then I decided to leave IT after 15 years to professionalize the dogs and dog training knowledge my family and I already had since ever and the niche is here and all that, I have a great doggy daycare to run and local buzz etc, but man it's tough. The real world is definitely another beast than IT. I now believe and understand that IT has always been a fantasy land where we all pretend we are awesome but we are just spoiled. The non-IT reality is fucking hard, but it is amazingly rewarding in its own way. I only hope I don't ever need to go back to IT, we'll see...
