00:00quanto يت lord because it has so many nice restaurants and stuff that there's always something
00:06to keep you entertained i guess and the theme of all of my life it's almost like a cocktail
00:11it's a it's a lot of random ingredients that somehow when that put together it creates something
00:16quite special and it makes a quite an interesting place and i think the other big thing for me is
00:21i think maybe i'm biased but Mikel must be one of the safest places in the world
00:30أنا دان مكولي من نزيلاد
00:33هنا أنا في مكاو
00:35لقد وصلت هنا في 2010
00:39كما قلت
00:41لقد وصلت هنا بشكل مختلف
00:44لقد وصلت هذا الشيء هنا في 2020
00:50وقد وصلت هنا في مكاو's first gin distillery
00:53بدأنا في مكاني في مكان
00:55مع قصة صغيرة جديدة
00:57وقد وصلت إلى مكاني ونصنع جديد
01:01وقد كانت جديد وشكل كورد في مكاني
01:03وقلات لم يحلقك دواء في مكاني
01:05وقلت حصلت إلى مكاني
01:06وقد وضعت من الصغيرة المكاو
01:10وقلت تتكلمون مجلسة
01:12وقلت محلول على مكاني مددد
01:14وقد قمت بحاجة إلى مكاني
01:16وقد وقد وصلت أقل من نظيفه
01:19وقد وقررنا نسيطر بشكل مكان
01:21وقد كان مقابل
01:27I think the mix of cultures of Macau definitely changed the direction we went with our gin.
01:33I think most Western countries sort of go down a more traditional citrusy kind of path,
01:38where we completely went down the herbal path embracing some Chinese medicinal botanicals.
01:44And even now we're starting to explore more with some traditional Chinese teas and stuff,
01:49which has been a great learning curve for us,
01:51but it's also something unique as well to Macau and the region.
01:55I think Macau is a great place for a small business.
01:58If you can find a product that services Macau's unique niche market,
02:04like for us it's the hotels and the casinos, their volume is huge.
02:08So for a small business like us, we can happily move 10,000 products a month,
02:13which in most cities would be a very hard feat to have.
02:17We kept pretty busy juggling a business and a job.
02:28But yeah, days off, again, Macau is small, but you can still do almost anything.
02:33So my days off, I love to drive my motorbike around the south of Macau.
02:37There's some nice roads there with greenery, the beach, it's quite peaceful.
02:40That's a great way to spend my morning.
02:42And then if my wife and kids are not at school or working, we catch up at the beach.
02:52Daddy!
03:00Have a nice lunch, the kids can play in the sand.
03:02I'm a lover of coffee and anything food, more or less.
03:09So Colawan Village, which is just around the corner from the beach,
03:12it's a great place to explore.
03:14A lot of old school history stuff there.
03:16So every time you go there, there's always something new that you haven't seen before.
03:20The evenings in Macau, again, being a hospitality town,
03:30there's some amazing bars and restaurants.
03:33The Koutai Strip, full of Eiffel Towers and many Frances and Italys, is amazing.
03:39Personally, for me, I love to get a few friends.
03:42There's some great little bars off the beaten track that catch up with our life.
03:50On the flip side, if we want to have a more quiet evening,
04:00quite often if I'm here in the evening,
04:03Macau being small, I can flick a message to a few friends
04:05and within a few minutes, they can turn up, maybe play some guitar here.
04:10And yeah, just relax and enjoy the evening.
04:12Yeah, I think for us, we want to keep this factory operating.
04:34We like Macau, the kids are super happy here.
04:36I came here back in 2010 and the idea was to come for maybe one year
04:41just for some career experience and something different.
04:44And then Macau is one of these interesting places
04:47that the longer you stay here, the more enjoyable it gets
04:49and it becomes home quite quickly, I guess.
