The wait is on—I’m currently working through the paperwork to officially register my company in the U.S. It’s one of those things that just takes time, so in the meantime, I’ve been doubling down on adding new tutors and professionals to my platform.

If you’re new here, let me explain: I’m building this project solo. Everything you see—every detail—is something I’ve crafted myself. And my vision is clear: quality over quantity.

I’m not interested in hosting 100,000 English tutors or 10,000 tour guides in London. Honestly? That sounds exhausting, impersonal, and ultimately detrimental to creating a true community. Instead, I’m curating a tight-knit group of 5–10 professionals per field to start with. It’s about connecting people with the best, not the most.

Take New York City, for example. Sure, you could justify having dozens of tour guides there. It’s a huge city with so much to offer. But thousands? No thanks. The challenge of managing that scale isn’t just logistical—it’s personal. I wouldn’t know how to maintain the authenticity and individuality that matter so much to me.

So, yesterday I reached out to several potential English tutors and photographers. Each conversation takes time. I dive into their portfolios, learn about their journeys, and ask myself one question: Would I personally find this work inspiring? If the answer is yes, I know it will resonate with a broader audience too.

At this stage, I’m confident in calling this my collection—a handpicked team of professionals who bring something special to the table.

What’s on Today’s Agenda?

1. Kicking Off the December Marathon.
2. Recording a Video for YouTube.

Let’s dive into these.

First, the marathon. It’s Day 36 of this wild journey, and while I’m proud to have made it this far (hello, 3.6% of the way!), it also feels like I’ve barely scratched the surface. Honestly, I’m craving momentum.

Motivation isn’t the problem—I wake up every day and give this project everything I’ve got. But I wanted this to be more than just a personal grind. From the start, I envisioned a Work With Me experience—a shared journey where people could tune in, cheer each other on, and build something together.

Here’s the catch: YouTube has a 50-subscriber minimum for live streams, and I’m still 16 subscribers short. It’s a small gap, but it feels like a mountain when you’re just starting out.

Today, I’m recording a new video for my channel, hoping it’ll bring in those last few subs. I’m aiming to hit that magic number by the end of the week so I can finally start streaming live.

Looking Ahead: The Next 30 Days

The next month is all about leveling up. I’ve got 30 days to make a real push—both in building my platform and growing my audience. It’s a mix of strategy, grit, and a whole lot of belief.

Every big dream starts with small steps, and for me, those steps look like handwritten messages to potential collaborators, late-night video edits, and the unwavering determination to create something meaningful.

Thanks for being here. Whether you’re following along out of curiosity, inspiration, or just to see how this experiment unfolds, I appreciate you. Let’s see what the next 30 days bring.
