Chapter 3. The Beginning Is The End Is The Beginning

Trading in my life as a Personal Trainer to become an English Teacher in Korea

That first night’s sleep in a new bed and a foreign land was a bit restless. I was worried about everything I should’ve been worried about before getting on a plane to fly halfway around the world.

I had walked away from my Fitness Business that I had created, trading it all in for an unknown adventure. I had no idea what to expect, but I knew one thing was for sure, in 2006, The United States was heading for a financial crisis and my business had been a canary in the coal mine as clients started tightening up, cutting back and letting go of luxuries like Personal Training. I also knew that having a job that paid a steady paycheck and covered housing sounded a lot less stressful than entrepreneurship.
