About Mason Anderson
Hi there, I am Mason Anderson ex-owner of nightclubs and resturants in the state of Florida. After I decided to sell my businesses, I started travelling the country. At one point, I settled in New York. I've found that this city has so much to offer. At my blog, The Social Brooklyn, I write about the main tourist attractions in the city and the whole state.
