Hey there! I'm Dave Eszing, originally from Hamburg, Germany, now embracing the digital nomad life in Medellín, Colombia. I thrive on outdoor adventures, whether it's hiking through lush Colombian landscapes or exploring local gems off the beaten path.

When I'm not outdoors, you'll find me immersed in board games, always up for a challenge or a strategic showdown. I love sharing travel stories, discovering new cultures, and connecting over shared passions. Let's explore Colombia together or swap travel tales over a board game night—I can't wait to meet you!

I've also worked from remote coffee farms, surrounded by beautiful nature. These adventures and connections make my journey truly special.
