So glad to see my dear friend and author of The Abundance of Less, Andy Couturier share his thoughts at the Kerala Literature Festival earlier this year. His message needs to be shared with one and all. Very inspiring.

Its been a year since this wonderful interview was published by a dear friend Kawa Shi. Although this conversation seems like yesterday a lot has happened in the past year and it has gonna in a direction that I had not planned for the year.
I guess that's life.. we can plan all we want to, but still need to respect the present, live with it, make it better and leave ample space + energy to make our other plans happen.
In the past year I've never missed Shanghai but I have missed our friends and our community, thanks to who I had a memorable 11-year journey in China.
