What I Can Share with Hosts

A great time together and exchanging life stories. and as my favorite quote below suggests, it's about sharing that glimpse of moment in life when 2 like minded individuals meet and collide.

“This is not a story of heroic feats, or merely the narrative of a cynic; at least I do not mean it to be. It is a glimpse of two lives running parallel for a time, with similar hopes and convergent dreams.”
― Che Guevara, The Motorcycle Diaries: Notes on a Latin American Journey
