Algo increíble que he hecho

I was a leading activist in a mass student movement in California. Our movement was where ´´Occupy´´ was first used as a major political slogan.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach English of course and always love to talk about history.

I´m working on learning Spanish and I always love to learn new things in general.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I can correct and improve your English if you want me to. I can also cook american breakfast stuff like french toast If you have access to obscure spices I can make a really delicious kind of middle-eastern bread. Outside breakfast and bread I´m not a very good cook though.
