As the story has it, one day I headed to the opposite side of the globe – the Flipside. I arrived in Korea February 16th, 2005 and thought I’d do a year, then leave. I was wrong. I stayed, launched my first company, Flipside Fitness, and then opened Korea's largest boxing club, Hulk's Boxing (now called Hulk's Club).

After 11.5yrs in Korea, I then picked up one day and returned to Toronto, Canada. But then I left again.

Now I live in the Philippines where I am the CEO and head coach of Empowered Clubhouse, the Philippines' first and only boxing clubhouse exclusively just for women. I also am the founder of the Lil' Sistas Project, CEO and designer of Slay Gear and Baa Baa Black Sheep .Ph.

Heaven in my Bowl... and Now in My Belly

 Today we ventured out of the tourist village for some morning breakfast and that's when I ran into this little adorable four-legged friend again.  Street dogs are e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e here in Thailand and I mean everywhere.  I happen to think they're quite interesting looking with their tiny eyes and small frame.  I met this particular pup yesterday and today I ended up feeding him half my breakfast.
 Met another four-legged friend who was wondering around my private house today.
I'm not much of a cat person but I had about half a day to entertain myself and she just wouldn't leave.
 The Kid and I hung out at the beach together today or, to be more honest here, we were more like abandoned because the others left us to go fishing.
 After a local man so kindly helped me out, I then searched out this lady and her traveling kitchen.
I tell you, the dish she created for me... wow, tasting it and eating it was just like the first time I experience fresh mango in the Philippines.  It was like Heaven in my mouth!!!
 And this right here, me holding papaya salad and rice in a bag, this is me experiencing Heaven.
 ...I allowed The Kid one fork-full of it and bought him his own food to enjoy.
I would have eaten the bowl and fork too if I could have, I was just that hungry.
 
Some shots for one of my sponsors...
 To Snickers, my family, friends, and Hulkies... I wish you were here with me!!!
 ...and here too (partly because that statue women at the end of this dock freaks the heck out of me).
