ABOUT ME
I currently live at a hostel and am exploring NYC and all it has to offer. If you'd like to stay with me, I can discuss your stay with the Brooklyn Cultural Center/Hostel instagramfollow@b.u.cc. Artist, musicians/bands, entrepreneurs, international travelers are especially welcome. Travelers are provided information about the local area; places to eat, museums, parks, event's, and even job opportunities. I work with a high-end audio/video production company and do my best to accommodate musicians/actors/comedians/film makers/etc. in fulfilling their dreams. I encourage you to connect with me. https://www.facebook.com/jared.batterman I am passionate about learning from people. I've been living in Brooklyn for over three months. I'm not sure what my long term plans are. I may be up for doing some traveling/living with you.

PHILOSOPHY

Keep it interesting. Affirmations are powerful.
