One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled Denmark to Afganistan by land

Traveled northern India by motorcycle

Went on a 5 day bushwack (a hike without a trail) when I was about 17 in the Appelachen Mountains. We summited three peaks with just a map and a compass, got caught in storm, and ran out of food. Was a really great adventure.

Climbed half dome in Yosemite national park

Spent three days in the British museum taking free tours and learning amazing things about the world

Slept in tree in the forest for a month
