One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Only one? Eenie...meenie...miney...

The sunrise over Lake Ohau in the South Island town of New Zealand. One of the most beautiful and peaceful phenomena I've ever experienced...

Running from a ton of bull in Hemingway's Pamplona...

Getting red in the largest food fight in the world...

Jumping out of a helicopter into a whitewater raft...

Canyoning through the Swiss Alps...

The adventure awaits...more to come.

Teach, Learn, Share

Smile. Be happy. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Kindness...and the best breakfast burritos this side of the Mississippi.
