我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Sorry, I think I'm pretty boring when it comes to this. Probably the most amazing thing I've done myself is fronting a rock-new wave band in my 30s. Never too old to rock-n-roll!

教，学，和分享

I'm a teacher and do enjoy it, especially when it comes to children. I could teach elementary painting & drawing, art history, Greek or English as a foreign language. And would really like to learn Chinese or Russian-well, Russian more likely!
