I feel like this post opens more questions than it tries to answer:
* Ultimately, why he didn't like SV?
* Was there a specific reason for choosing Tel Aviv, over say Berlin or Sydney? (Girlfriend? Is he an Israeli citizen?)
Some quotes are correct only if you frame them, for example: if you’ re passionate enough about your project, you can make it happen anywhere - Care to try in Greece, Nigeria, Syria?
Also, I didn't understand too much about his profile: In the beginning seems like he was a very successful entrepreneur who turned into a VC, insinuating that he made lots of money (== success). Then it gives me the impression that he didn't had a great run.

I know there's a war in Syria at the moment. But what's going on in Greece and Nigeria?
Greece is ok for startups. Connection is fast, living expenses cheap an always sunny. Strikes and protests are well policed and easy to avoid. Biggest problem here are taxes.
Sorry about that, the editors cut a lot of explanation because the article was too long. There's more info about me at http://jle.vi if you're interested.

Anyway, wish him all the best.
