In brief...

Bangkok is one of the best cities in the world and Thailand is a fantastic country – a great market. Ironically, I was there from 2008 to 2013 when most of the world was going through a global financial crisis. However Thailand was immune because it had been the origin of another crisis in 1997.

As a result, all banks and companies across the country were restructured between 1997 and 2008, and had very healthy balance sheets, which is why we were going through tremendous growth – triple digits year on year. It was a great experience. Also, that background has helped me understand how developers think and what is important for them; that has facilitated our growth to date.

That doesn’t leave much time! I don’t know whether it’s a good idea but I don’t have a very clear border between work and not work. This is the second business I’m growing and I know how much it takes – and so does my family. My job and personal life involve a lot of travel. Most of my spare time is spent with my wife and two kids, letting them get used to a normal lifestyle and trying to build a social life in fantastic London, which I am very much enjoying.

What was it like living in Bangkok?

What do you do when you are not 'yotelling'?
