ABOUT ME

PHILOSOPHY

Never plan, get lost and have fun.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you: how to rock climb, all about science, cheap delicious vegetarian meals, how to play Euchre and why it is the best card game ever

I would like to learn: languages for sure! I am trying to learn German, Spanish, French and Russian. I am willing to learn any language that I don't know though. I want to learn about local cuisine and local music from all around the world.
