One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had is my trip from Asmara to Nefasit on an Italian steam train in Eritrea.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a fair amount about English literature, since I studied it in college. I am getting to know a lot now about the Egyptian education system from my work. I love sharing my experiences in the various countries and cities I have visited.

I'd like to learn how to whistle.
