One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I studied abroad for four months in London in the fall of 2012, traveling to ten different countries. During that trip, I went canyoning, which is illegal in most countries. It's basically going from the top of a mountain to the bottom through jumping, sliding, and hiking in a wetsuit.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love learning. I love learning about health and fitness, and new technology.
