Thank you for this response. If you don't mind me asking, why did you choose to start in Latin America? Was there some reason why your startup needed to be there?
I know that utility outages can be a problem, but I don't think it'll usually be that much of an issue. Guatemala has beautiful weather all year round (particularly the City; even high end houses rarely have air conditioning unless they're down near one of the oceans).
I understand not being able to surround myself with like-minded people. Honestly, though, I haven't really done that even in the States. If I moved to SF, then I might be able to do that kind of thing, but I'm not sure how important that would be.
- benologist 13y agoI was just randomly traveling around, this was in 2005 and I was contracting and able to live anywhere I wanted, fell in love with this part of the world and a couple of the women, and had myself a half-nicaraguan, half-australian, costa rican daughter which is my main reason for opening my next office here. I didn't "plan" to build a startup as such, I built something and it became popular.
