One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was a DJ for many bars along the tubing river in Vang Vieng, Laos.

I was a last minute fill in commentator for the Warcraft 3 Championships between Korea and China. They only told me it was live 2 minutes before we went on air. One of the scariest/cooliest things I have ever done.
