Hello, My name is Michael and I am 30 years old currently living in St Pete Beach, FL (Tampa Bay Area).

I work remotely as a software engineering in the travel industry.

I am an avid traveler and spent 2 years traveling full time as a digital nomad but now have a home base in Florida. I love meeting new people from all across the world.

I am a huge music nerd, play 4 instruments and love going to concerts. Also like to go kayaking, hiking, or any beach related activities.
