One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I made a 17 minute YouTube video documenting a solo backpacking trip I took. Not amazing, but fun!

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a little bit about a lot, and I'm always willing to practice my french with a willing tutor. I think most genuine interactions can be good chances to learn and teach.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer hosts an awesome, considerate, and friendly guest. That's pretty much what I hope for when I'm hosting.
