I am about to start training for my lifelong carrier dream, which is to be a pilot. I decided to travel some before starting the training courses. I was invited to see Ukraine and encourage some people there. I was there for 12 days. Since I was in Europe, I decided to travel a bit to some places I always wanted to visit :) I am quite friendly and enjoy hearing all sorts of people’s thoughts. Talking and good scenery (nature is the best) is all I need in life 😊

Music, Movies, and Books
I love LOVE meditation tunes. Also Indie is great. I think all types of music are special, and they all have good songs in them. Some styles of music just have larger amounts of good songs :) - - - - Movies 🎥 not really something that I find that great. Would rather talk about real things. - - - - Books, I’m not as much of a reader as I should be. Perhaps it’s just a generation thing, but I enjoy audio books and podcasts more. Podcasts: History that doesn’t suck Joe Rogan (of course 😂)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I once (accidentally) swam in one of the most crocodile 🐊 infested waters in Africa (as a 13 year old).I remember feeling a little funny like something was in the water with me (which there probably was) but I was kept safe for some reason… so it’s good to find out what that reason is :) I have traveled a lot for my age and I am happy about this. I have lived and owned a 1976 VW Bus (Type 2) I once spent a month sailing the Mediterranean with a friend who is a lifelong nomad :) I learned to weld and built lots of furniture for people I love during the crazy pandemic (can show photos if you’d like 😊)
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: - Swing dancing 🕺 (basics plus a little) - Plumbing - Electrical 120v and Solar - How to fix your Motorcycle or Moped Learn: - What an odd type of question this is? Let me learn everything! 🧐😊 - I guess I now see what they mean… things I would be interested in learning are … any type of dance and challenging thoughts about my culture and way of life. This way I can improve how I see the things of this world 🌎 🤔😊 Share: I can help with any house maintenance 👨🔧 I am good at FIXING things :) So I can share my time and knowledge on these things 😊
What I Can Share With Hosts
Stories - Laughs - kindness Also if there is anything needing to be fixed… this is what I do for a living, so I guess I could do some of that too :)
My Interests
Stories … stories … and more stories about your life and what you’ve experienced 😊😊😊 Also the basics - Good food and drink - Nature and hikes - coffeeeee
