Teach, Learn, Share
I used to teach English as a foreign language, and plan on getting started again in the new year so I'm willing to help with any language issues people have.
As someone who has just finished a year studying International Relations in Turkey with a view to getting different perspectives on global issues im always interested in using travel as a way to learn from people.
