One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
In one day, while in Chiang Mai, I got to pet tigers, ride on a bamboo raft, ride an elephant, visit the infamous walking street, and visit a botanical garden all in one day. I was pretty exhausted after that. Loved the experience very much though
Teach, Learn, Share
I can play guitar on a basic, so I can show basic chords + different strumming techniques, etc
I make films, I can teach film theory, framing techniques, editing, screenwriting, etc
I like to sing. Do you? We can harmonize!
I can share my personal experiences on the places I have traveled to and give recommendations.
Own a dslr so I can take high res pics for you to keep.
I can learn an extensive amount of different languages, but i forget them (lack of practice). So I'd love to brush up on my rusty language skills. Would also enjoy hearing about other travel experiences!
