One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I started a "dignity" (charity is too demeaning...) in The Gambia, and managed to ship tons of computer and educational staff for free. I got involved for 7 years in the thick of the culture and got to know some awesome people and amazing facts...a challenge of a lifetime...!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have lived in 3 different continents, volunteered with 37 different groups, worked in 15 different fields...

I've got a story or 2 to share...(I think...)
