One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

another hard question.. but maybe seeing the sun rise over the `mar de nubes` in oaxaca.. or the night of san lorenzo when there are hundreds of shooting stars.. or working with nesting sea turtles in costa rica and watching the babies make it back to the sea

Teach, Learn, Share

i can cook pretty much, and make simple jewellery, and teach english, and i would love to learn to grow my own food, or to cook any new exciting recipes, or to make beautiful things, or build treehouses, or build any kind of shelter, or to produce energy or make new things out of old useless stuff, or to learn new languages.. i love learning new things and there are too many possibilities to list here..!
