Grinding 24/7 at a fintech startup + working on an finance/AI-based research project. Because I really like to interact with my guests, I'm more available to host on weekends. Do send me your schedule and we'll figure it out :) ⚠️ If you're a remote worker, I'm happy to suggest spots/cafés to work in the city, not in the apartment ❤️ 🗓 2 nights is my sweet spot Brazilian/Peruvian, after some traveling around, I've been living the last decade+ straight in Brazil. As of Dec 2021 I'm based out of Rio de Janeiro, living by the beach with James, my dog. Passionate to travel to off-the-beaten path and discover different ways of living around the world. Easy going, beach and outdoor lover, adventurous and interested in meeting new people to share life stories. IG julio_ism
