Music, Movies, and Books

Things that make my heart feel good

I love Four Tet's new album, Thelma & Louise is amazing, currently reading Philosphy Made Simple, about a guy who goes to live on an avocado plantation

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in Ghana for 3 months as a volunteer, and worked with the reusable pad company Days for Girls to come in and teach rural communities how to make their own. This is continuing now and helping African females with costs of sanitary towels, and reduces the need for extreme measures in order to obtain them (sleeping with men for money). Prior to this some women were also using unhygienic methods such as old dirty towels and even corn husks.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love art, painting, drawing, singing. I can help with English skills and would love to share tandem-style to learn more of other languages.
