Today we are chatting with friend of the house - Miguel Veterano.

We're chatting with one of the most dedicated entrepreneurs in the UAE.

Today we are chatting with Dan Vandooren - the co-founder of the Surf House in Dubai.

The Surf House is many things to many people, it’s a great cafe for meeting and chilling with friends.  It’s a surf shop - reminiscent of the surf shops that many of us grew up with around the world  - a chilled out space selling all the essential elements to complement a coastal lifestyle.  They also do equipment rental, getting 100s of people per week into the water on surf boards, stand up paddles, hydro foils and more. 

But more than anything, the Surf House is an authentic and super strong community of like minded people, that find peace, happiness and camaraderie through their shared love of the ocean and a healthy active lifestyle.

JC is a good looking guy with some of the coolest body ink out there - we first started chatting for his participation as a perfect model to feature in some our social media content.

Through this time we got to know him a little better and soon realized that JC had a particular view of life and was actively working towards creating his own reality.

From an early career in nightlife and modeling, JC has now transitioned to be fully independent and building a successful lifestyle as :

an agent for a growing portfolio of street artists

Owner and co -creative director of streetwear brand Open Till Late

Active crypto currency trader

During this process, I stumbled upon the profile of Stephan Muller.

Stephan is partner at MTAA 'More Than An Agency' and innovative sports management agency positioned at the intersection of football and impactful opportunities.
