Hello everyone, Francisco here from Texas!
In terms of professional background, I've been in corporate finance (mostly banking) for around 4 years. I'm highly interested in exploring other remote job opportunities though (Sales, Marketing, Data Analysis, etc.), whichever will allow me the most freedom/leverage. I'd be grateful for the communities help on this.
In terms of hobbies, I do love to travel. I went on a solo trip to Cancun, Playa Del Carmen, and Tulum at the beginning of this year. It really opened my eyes to what's really possible out there, and how much environment and culture shapes our perceptions and beliefs of the world around us. Met a gang of people from Argentina, Australians, and a bunch of Canadians funny enough. I discovered the Remote Freedom Community from following Austin's channel for a while, was always a dream of mine to have that level from geographic freedom.
Working remote excites me because I feel it's the future. In my experience, corporations generally make you go into the office to have more control, which I am very much not a fan of. Some countries I would like to work from are: Brazil, Colombia, Argentina, Peru, Various Eastern European countries, Spain, Portugal, SEA. It would be a great goal of mine to someday visit the Philippines again, I lived there until I was 8 years old before coming to the US.
Thank you Austin for having this community, excited to be a part of it!
