Mike Catherall is a freelance English copywriter from Canada. This blog documents his mission to find a permanent English copywriting position at a 4As agency in Hong Kong. Arriving with his portfolio and a prayer he set out to make this dream a reality without the help of any contacts, friends, knowledge of Cantonese or leads. He had $7500 HK left in his bank account to make this happen and no plane ticket home.
