One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have worked on an uninhabited isolated island for 8 months as a Park Ranger, no internet, no traffic, no neighbours, hardly any visitors. Just me and my chickens, so I didnt have to talk to the trees after a couple of months..Even rode with the dolphins for the first time. Caught my first tuna.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach Basic art and few other things, I'd also like to share my experiences and skills that may interest you.
