Stephen left his home country to teach in Moskow, Russia for 1 year. It's been years and he still lives in Russia! I had to ask him why he chose to relocate to Russia, what he likes about living in Moskow and what made him stay.

In this interview we also talk about financial goals, side hustles, and finding out what you want to do in life.
