Hello, my name is Erik from Boston, Massachusetts in the US. I am going to be embarking on a digital nomad journey starting early 2023 and am hoping to utilize this wonderful website to meet and connect with people as I go.

I'm somewhat new to CS but have rented out my own property and know what it's like when people don't treat it with respect so I definitely won't be that person.

I've recently decided to give up my semi workaholic lifestyle, venture out into the world and see what it holds. I have traveled off and on over the last decade or so with each experience being unique and affecting me in it's own way. I'm excited about this new chapter and who/what it will bring.

I worked in the corporate world for a number of years in real estate/finance and also ran a small business with my brother investing in real estate. Along the way I picked up some handyman skills and would be happy to help with any projects you may be working on.

Other than that, I'm into skiing, healthy eating, reading, all forms of exercise and nature related things. I've also started learning to sail which I hope to continue at some point.
