DESCRIPTION

Many entrepreneurs don't get to startup in major tech hubs. Being the center of your own startup oasis is a way to keep sane, especially during the prototyping / MVP dev / bootstrapping phase.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE IN “A HUB” ALL THE TIME TRAVEL SMARTLY, WHEN NEEDED

WORK YOUR ASS OFF THE REST OF THE TIME (note: avoid traveling by ambulance whenever possible)
