Here's the catch: it might seem overwhelming at first, but eventually, it grows on you. Let's chat more about it - what's on your mind? Any specific questions?

Building has tested me in ways I never expected. As CEO, tech lead, product thinker, problem solver, and sometimes the person holding everything together mentally, it has not been easy. There were moments of excitement, but also frustration. From dealing with Apple challenges and technical roadblocks, to handling life itself while still trying to build something meaningful. People often see startups from the outside and think it’s just about launches, funding, or big wins. What they don’t see are the sleepless nights, the uncertainty, the pressure, and the discipline it takes to keep going when things are not moving the way you hoped. But despite everything, I’m still here. Still building. Still learning. Still believing in what Hafrik can become. This journey is shaping me as much as I’m shaping the company. To every founder, builder, engineer, designer, or dreamer carrying weight behind the scenes, I see you. We keep going.

WhatsApp/Instagram/Google in China 🇨🇳 – What’s working for you? Just arrived or planning a trip? Here’s the real deal on staying connected: 🔴 The Block WhatsApp, Instagram, Google (Maps, Gmail, Drive), Facebook, and X are blocked here without a stable connection tool. Don’t panic—it’s manageable. 🟢 What actually works: WeChat = Everything (chat, pay, mini-apps, life) Baidu Maps > Google Maps for local navigation (Chinese/English available) Outlook/Hotmail usually works without issues for email Bing works for search (international version) Apple Maps works if you have iPhone 💡 Pro tips: - Download a VPN before you arrive (if you go that route—test a few, they vary by city/ISP) - International roaming: from your home SIM sometimes bypasses blocks (but check data costs!) - Alipay or WeChat Pay are essential—way more important than Instagram access 😅 🤔 My question to you: What’s your setup? VPN, roaming, or full "going local" with Chinese apps? Any apps surprisingly working better than expected? Drop your tips below for the new arrivals! 👇 #ChinaLife #ExpatTips #Tech #NewInChina #DigitalNomad

Episode 1: My Journey So Far [Part 1] Unfiltered with Olayemi | Stories Beyond Borders In this first episode of Unfiltered with Olayemi, I talk about my journey so far. From secondary school to polytechnic, and how I eventually found myself living in China since 2018. I share my experiences, the decisions I made, and how those moments shaped the person I'm becoming. This episode is personal and free-flowing. I didn't over-structure it. I just wanted to start by telling my story honestly. This is the foundation for the conversations to come around life abroad, growth, business, and figuring things out as we go. https://open.spotify.com/episode/1MKokoDQSIGNRdxGZMIUnE?si=w899o4WKQfmz1e8p2P5Bbw

I’ve been thinking a lot recently about building, growth, and direction. Over the past few years, I’ve moved countries, built products, started companies, made mistakes, learned hard lessons, met amazing people, and started building something bigger than I initially planned. One thing I’ve realized is that life rarely goes in a straight line. Most of the time, you’re just figuring things out, adjusting, learning, failing, fixing, and continuing. Right now, I’m focused on building Hafrik and a few other things around community, technology, and media. Still building. Still learning. Still growing.

Being a Software Engineer while pursuing a degree in CST and AI in China is more than just a marathon of coding it’s a lesson in scale and speed. In this ecosystem, you learn quickly that code is only as powerful as the problem it solves. My three core takeaways from this journey so far: • Technical Rigor: Engineering is the foundation. Without clean architecture, AI is just noise. • The AI Leverage: AI isn't just a subject; it’s the tool that allows a single developer to build with the impact of an entire department. • The Founder’s Lens: As an entrepreneur, I’ve stopped asking "How do I build this?" and started asking "How does this create value?" I’m excited to keep pushing the boundaries where local innovation meets global tech. To my fellow builders: stay curious and keep shipping. #SoftwareEngineering #ArtificialIntelligence #Entrepreneurship #CST #ChinaTech #StudentFounder
