???#RWWCommunityHero?Spotlight: Jermeel H.
Every month, we introduce an?RWW Community Hero who has shared their story, skills, and/or support to showcase our valued members around the world.
Meet Jermeel:
Hey everyone! My name is Jermeel, Partnership Director for Remote Year, the leading remote work and travel organization specializing in curated 1 month, 4 & 12 month travel itineraries around the world. Im originally from California where I was once a professional model, actor and dancer for many years. In 2018 I hung up my dancing shoes and picked up my adventure boots and took to the skies. Having now been a full time digital nomad for 5 years I can say it has brought me so much joy, and lessons in global affairs. My mind has been opened. I see the world differently. I have cooked traditional meals in Senegal, tilled the rice fields in Vietnam, had romances in Colombia, and even met my best friend in Greece and still have so many adventures to go!
