Q And then, uh, did you know that you were gonna start nothing, or, you know, on day one, or, you know, do you have a moment in there where you're trying to figure, figure out what the next thing would be?
A Yeah, for the longest time, I thought I was gonna travel the world for half a year, at least, because at OnePlus, I was so busy. I was working at least six days a week, and just no real vacations for seven years. But after 10 days on that holiday, it got kind of boring. I felt like I was burning away my life, and I was still young, and I was staying in fancy hotels, and enjoying the, the drinks, and the dinners, and whatnot, but I felt a lot of anxiety that I wasn't contributing anything, so. I quickly wrapped up the, the, the trip after 10 days, uh, went back to Stockholm, where I grew up, and started reaching out to entrepreneurs there, because I had never raised money before. So I started reaching out to all the entrepreneurs I knew, and they kept introducing me to people. So basically, in like three weeks in Sweden, I got coached by all the Swedish entrepreneurs on how to raise money. Uh, it was a super welcoming community. I'm sure it's the same here. I haven't spent as much time here.
