Yeah I’ve ended up with some sort of syncretic mixed culture. It’s quite good. You get to pick and choose what works best in your situation from both cultures. There are a lot of people from Asia who have done this, but not many from the West – I think mostly because not many people immigrate from the West to Asia. I’ve managed to really push my business forward drawing on ideas from both cultures.

I’ve already started packing up and exporting concepts back to family in the West. The way Asian families handle family-level economics and real estate inheritance is something that I think early adopters would benefit from in the current ridiculous housing situation in many parts of Canada. Meanwhile, the Western tolerance of lawyers in family matters gives me a big edge here – avoiding the family feuds that so much is lost to. Just the first two random examples that come to mind :)
