One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Taitung, Taiwan where you can see the mountains and the beach at the same time and where people live humbly. I taught English for a summer at a school there.

Worked on a farm in Varmahlíð, Iceland for a summer. The most beautiful place in the world where the grass is the greenest and the midnight sun is breathtaking.

Approaching Dettifoss, the most powerful waterfall of Europe, as 'Festival' by Sigur Rós climaxed.

Hiked Landmannalaugar, Iceland. The most brilliant colors and textures of the Earth.
