In 2012 a friend and I started a shared economy website that enabled people to eat at people's homes all over the world. It was a wild ride that got us into press and media in countries from the US to Germany, Japan, Brazil... We had hosts in more than 200 countries and we got to meet amazing people. I was on TV in Germany and Spain, which was a lot of fun. The company was acquired early in 2020.
Sessions in the UN, speeches at British parliament and still, our craziest moment was probably being parodied by Jimmy Kimmel (the quality of the video is bad, I apologize).
