Hello to everyone here on bigger pockets. My name is Mike Waltman, I'm 24, and originally from Long Island New York. I graduated with a teaching degree a few years ago and decided it wasn't for me. After that realization, I decided to spend the next few years traveling, working as a deck hand on a luxury/adventure charter sailing yacht in South East Asia, a caretaker for a multi-millionaire's estate in South East Florida and lifeguard/host to (non-paying) guests during the summer months at my campsite next to the beach in Montauk, New York. My experiences have made me realize that I enjoy and am competent at providing fun and unique vacation experiences for guests in places that I have local knowledge of.

I'm interested in investing in vacation rental properties and constructing eco-friendly rental units on undeveloped land. The areas that I am interested in are surf tourism destinations (primarily focused on Rincon/Aguadilla/Isabella, Puerto Rico but also interested in various areas of Nicaragua, and Panama). I have a passion for surf, the outdoors, hospitality and real estate. It is my hope to combine these passions with the money I have saved and the connections I have made in order to establish a well balanced life through vacation rental management and real estate investment.

By the way, the podcast is great. INCREDIBLY helpful and entertaining. Really opened up a new world to me so thanks to Josh Dorkin and Brandon Turner for doing what you guys do.
