One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are fairly many: scooter driving in the Nepal mountains, Night train in India, Walking in the Chinese wall, Boat ride around San Francisco bay (Alcatraz, Golden Gate), Partying in Las Vegas, seen Riots in Tallinn and Ankara, Shooting with different guns in Thailand and Tallinn, Cryotherapy in a garage in Tallinn (under -120 degrees), ice-swimming around Finland (Like this https://www.instagram.com/p/BsGyHh-ntwa), seen raindeers and Santa, Festivals around Europe, New Years fireworks in Helsinki, London, Berlin. Driving my motorcycle license in Finland took a toll also, when driving in +5 degrees.

Teach, Learn, Share

Always have plan B, when you go to a new place and backup cash. Take copies of your passports and upload them to some secure cloud service encrypted. Make sure people know where you are, so they don't worry. Be open-minded to anything, people are just different so don't expect them to behave the same way as you would. Always be learning something that interests you and sometimes even useless information can be useful and trading favors.
