A lil bit of backstory

Back in 2018 I joined a group called the DC…

The DC is a group of what’re called “location independent entrepreneurs”

In other words, it’s a big group with a whole bunch of business-minded people who love to travel the world and who’ve set their businesses up in a way that allows them to do so

At the time when I joined, I was living nomadically, traveling from one country to the next while I built my business

To say that joining the DC opened up new doors and unlocked new opportunities would be a massive understatement

Suddenly I was surrounded with people who thought the same way I did…

People who were facing the same challenges as me…

People who had overcome those very challenges at earlier points in their journeys…

The DC wasn’t a training program (though I’d argue that I’ve learned more from that group of people than just about anywhere else)

It wasn’t coaching or mentorship (although I’ve certainly been coached through some pretty tight jams by more than one of my fellow DCers!)

The DC is a community.

It’s a community of happy, fun, successful and (most importantly) like minded people who’re there for one another

When one of us needs help, we reach out

We ask questions

We learn from other people who’ve “been there” and “done that”

We build eachother up because we understands that a rising tide lifts all ships

And overall we have a bunch of fun together

Unfortunately, up until now, that sort of lowkey, tight-knit, fun, helpful, like minded community hasn’t really existed in the STR space

So that’s why I’m creating BNB Tribe

It’s a community for happy, fun, successful and (most importantly) like minded people who’re into Airbnb and short-term rentals and who wanna help one another to grow

There’ll be all kinds of cool training (cuz that stuff helps too)

And there’ll be a bunch of other fun perks (I’ll be keeping those a secret ‘til we launch on March 1st 🤫)

But at its core, BNB Tribe is gonna be a community that’ll be fun to be a part of and that’ll help each one of its members to perform better on Airbnb

If that’s something you’re into and you wanna get the updates when we go live, you can sign up for the waitlist at the link in my bio :)

Something exciting is coming…

For the past couple months, I’ve been brainstorming, planning and building something pretty special.

If you’ve ever thought of hosting/co-hosting/investing in Airbnb… this is for you 😎

And if you’re already on Airbnb… holy smokes… you are not gonna wanna miss this

I’m still keeping this mostly a secret until we open the doors on March 1st, but if you wanna get a sneak peak and stay up to date, you can join the waitlist at the link in the comments!

If you wanna make money on Airbnb and have a ton of fun doing it, you should definitely check this out :)
