One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Each person and place has the potential to amaze, if seen in it's individual aspect ... and so each person met and each place visited.

Teach, Learn, Share

Travel advice (been on the road myself for a year and a half).

I might potentially cook a thing or two.

Help with English. I probably will not teach you the stupid mistakes made by a lot of native speakers. Improving my Spanish is a big goal, as well as getting started on French and Italian.
