Checking Out Chicago
I’ve been busy with tennis coaching in the last month hence lack of posts on freedomideas.com. ;(
But I was also planning to visit Chicago for some personal reasons – there are some personal development seminars that I will attend.
So if there’s anyone from Chicago that wants to pick my brain while they show me around, I’d be happy to do that.
Email me at tomaz at freedomideas.com or contact me through +38641923766. I’ll get a US prepaid phone once I get there…
I am arriving tomorrow on 10th and departing on 21st of June… Read more
Winter 2010 in South-East Asia
I spent most of the winter of 2010 in Thailand and neighboring countries since I really don’t like cold. 
I am writing this post as a journal for myself to remind myself later of where I have been and also to perhaps inspire and motivate all those who look to become financially free and do whatever they want to do.
New Year In Bangkok, Thailand
I arrived in Thailand on the 31st of December (flying with business class of course from Slovenia ) and spent the New Year’s Eve in Bangkok where hordes of people came to see the entertainment show in front of the Central plaza (a big shopping mall).
There was also a short fireworks show but really nothing spectacular. It’s interesting to celebrate New Year in short pants and sleeves and sweat at the same time – while most people in the Northern hemisfere wear thick jackets and gloves and maybe even enjoy some snowy conditions. Read more
Flying Business Class On Turkish Airlines Boeing 777-200
I am in Thailand again and this time I found good price for the business class with Turkish Airlines. I’ve never flown business class before so I was eager to see how it compares to economy.
The ticket price from Ljubljana to Bangkok through Istanbul was just around 1600 eur which translates to around $2,300.
That’s a good price for a business class since most other airlines charge double or more for the same distance (Austrian Airlines through Vienna and Lufthansa through Munich or Frankfurt).
There’s not much difference flying business class on Airbus 319-100 which took me from Ljubljana to Istanbul except that there is more leg room and that flight attendants bring more drinks and food. Read more
Book Cheap Flights and Hotels With Paypal
I’ve been researching the web for some time to find cheap flights and hotels that I could pay for with Paypal.
In other words, I’ve been looking for websites where I could book a cheap flight or book a hotel and complete my payment with Paypal.
There are some very useful sites that offer Paypal as the payment option and here’s what I’ve found so far:
Cheap Flights in the USA
If you’re travelling in the USA, these companies allow you to pay for your flight with Paypal:
- American Airlines (only for US, Puerto Rico and Virgin Islands residents)
- Northwest Airlines
- JetBlue Airways
- US Airways
- Hotwire.com (I tried booking one hotel in Paris, France with Hotwire and was unable to select Paypal as my payment option. The Hotwire support answer: »The reason why it would not let you choose this payment option is it is not available for this hotel. The hotel may not accept Pay-pal for payment.« So it seems that Hotwire accepts Paypal only if the airline or the hotel does. Please share your experiences!) Read more
Holidays On Thailand Islands
I’ve been traveling to Koh Samui and other Thailand islands in the last 16 days so that’s why you are no seeing any new posts here.
It’s been a great experience from the holiday perspective and from the online business perspective – or maybe I could say enjoying freedom while doing almost nothing for my websites.
I took my laptop and found some nice places on Koh Samui where there was free wi-fi in the restaurant. So I had my pad thai, checked my emails, updated a few Content 2.0 pages and went swimming again.
Free wi-fi on Koh Samui
The power of internet allows you to earn money while doing minimal maintenance work on your authority content sites. I’ve had my best month so far and I’ve done the least work in this month in the last 3 years of my journey into the internet marketing arena…
Off to Phuket
Not many posts from me lately… I took a one week vacation in Phuket, Thailand and then returned back to Slovenia, so lots of things happening right now…
Before you check the photos, I want to add something; a few months ago I was reading a blog post which was something like “A Day in the life of… (I forgot the name)”.
The guy who was interviewed was making around $20,000 per month, mostly on passive income (Adsense, affiliate programs, …).
SBI Cruise Experiences
I am safely back from the SBI cruise which I attended in USA.
Sorry for the lack of useful posts but sometimes we have to take the really needed vacation.
And this post won’t give you any special ideas on how to become financially free but hopefully it will show you what kind of lifestyle you can afford with a successful online business on autopilot.
So let’s start the SBI cruise!
Bye bye Slovenia! I am leaving for Paris and then for Miami on the 16th of January. I left Slovenia at 7.30 AM and arrived in Miami the same day at 5.00 PM! And lost 6 hours of time difference somewhere on the road… Read more
The Journey From Thailand To Slovenia
Finally home! The journey from Thailand to Slovenia took around 16 hours and there is a 6 hour time difference.
I am still used to Thai time at the moment since I wake up at 3 am which would be 9 am in Thailand.
Oh yes, and I am writing this post at 5.45 am too.
Anyway, just wanted to let you all know that I am still alive and that the transition from 35 degrees C:
to -2 degrees C was quite shocking.
By the way, I’m planning a special competition for all the commenters who add value and different points of view to this financial freedom blog.
You’ll know all the details tomorrow so stay in touch!
