Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I went cliff jumping at Iskander Kul in Tajikistan. The towering sandy desert mountains in contrast to the clear cold oasis, good friends, and the adrenaline of the jump, is one of my fondest travel memories.

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

I'd love to sit down and draw or craft together, lead us in daily yoga practice, or cook us a delicious vegetarian meal.
I work as a mountain guide (mostly in rock and mountaineering) and would be happy to share some best practices that I've learned through my training and mentorship.
