Always love how events bring people together, catching up with old friends and making new ones is the best part!
A couple of weeks ago, I had the chance to speak on Content Localisation at the Social Media Conference 2025 in Genting.
What made this trip even more memorable was having wifey join me. We spent a few days enjoying Genting’s cool air before heading over to KL. A nice mix of work, learning, and a little getaway together.
It was fantastic to to connect with fellow speakers in person and learn from their insights:
