One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Tatra mountains in Slovakia, when I was a child. I guess that was the first moment when I got "infected" with the road and traveling.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am certified to teach English, so you can make use of me if you want :)
Personally, I'd like to practice my Spanish and Russian on every possible occasion. I can cook vegetarian food and share the result.
I love "sharing" yoga, swimming, and jogging.
What else?... Not much, huh?
