Description
Hello, I am Brandon.
I’m traveling solo for an extended time to experience new cultures, explore the beautiful places of South and Central America, and grow through shared experiences and personal reflection. I left Los Angeles to take a step back from the corporate world and city life. The pace and politics back home were affecting my mental health, so I decided to reset, connect with people in a more genuine way, and focus on personal growth. I’m especially drawn to places rich in wildlife and native plants, and I enjoy learning about how people live in balance with their environment. I care deeply about dogs and feel that sharing our lives and this planet with them is a gift. I try to bring love, patience, and kindness to every animal I meet. I also enjoy fantasy books and games, being active outdoors, and working with my hands. I’m an avid tattoo collector and love ending the day around a fire with friends, sharing stories, good conversation, and a drink.

More details about your skills
I bring a mix of skills from very different parts of my life. I spent eight years in the pharmaceutical industry helping to develop cancer treatments, and another eight in the Army, where I learned to work hard, stay organized, and adapt to any task. I’ve also volunteered at dog shelters, helping with feeding, cleaning, walking, and spending time with the dogs. I enjoy working with people, staying active, and taking pride in hands-on work like cleaning, building, or landscaping.
