One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I completed a 50 km race in high school, which was pretty fun! I'm hoping to get to go on some runs in Spain, it tends to be the way I orient myself.
Teach, Learn, Share
Things I can teach: English, math (through trigonometry, I would need to review Calculus), general biology, bicycle maintenance, any rock climbing/rope systems queries, and manual transmission!
Things I hope to learn: Spanish language, culture, geography, cuisine, and any local hobbies.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Hair cuts, wine, meals (one of my favorite American holidays, Thanksgiving is coming up!), help around the house, massages, child care, pet grooming/training/supervision, gardening/landscaping, general great attitude or whatever else you can think of! Probably.
