One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last summer I traveled around Vietnam for a month on my own. It was intense, beautiful and freeing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love meeting people who are interested in and want to share their knowledge of history and art. I love talking about books and sharing knowledge in different languages.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm not looking to be hosted - just to hang out.
