Updated Inventory

Now that I am a resident at 4 Hyatt hotels, I must update my full inventory to capture the content of my 4 checked-in suitcases. This took my level on the scale from 3 up to 4, with a total item count of  197 (up from 123), just 2 shy of the 199 limit. And this is taking into account many planned purchases. Not bad…

Welcome to my new home: Residency.One

Living in multiple places

I now spend more than 150 nights per year on the road, mostly in New York, London, Paris, and Tokyo. As a result, I have decided to consider myself a resident of these places, and to update my LinkedIn profile everytime I land in one of them. That will make it easier for friends to know where I am, at any time. Later on, I will share a few tips on this multiple residency approach. Stay tuned…

Citizenship

• French by birth
• Algerian by descent
• American by choice
• Chinese by union
• Japanese at heart

So says LinkedIn.
