Matthew E. Pond hails from sunny California but Shenzhen, China, is where he hangs his hat these days. Over the years, Matthew has lived among farmers in Asia, worker-bee folks in North America, and jet setters in Latin America. A former Live and Invest Overseas editor, he considers himself a child of the world and feels it is never too late to learn something new. In his spare time, he takes pleasure in spending time with his wife and two boys, doing volunteer work, and illustration.
