One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Hiked around Lake Mohave with some friends during winds between 40 and 50 miles per hour. At the highest points, we could jump straight up and be carried 4 to 5 feet downwind, luckily there were a lot of flat areas to play around. A constant stream of sand, slowly removing layers of skin, slowed us down, but it was still one of the most intense things I have ever done.
Teach, Learn, Share
I know a great deal about American politics, economics, and history. I also have some experience working with statistics and econometrics. I want to learn more world history, as I tended to slack off in my world history class in high school. I am also pretty well versed in most geeky and nerdy subjects and topics.
On a brighter note, I have experience working in gardens and children gardens, and a basic knowledge of horticulture. I also know a little bit about the universe and the stars and space, but I want to learn more. I like reading science fiction, and I like discussing and debating what the future may hold.
I have a lot of practical experience with food, still working on the theory and production stages.
