One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Luke: Hiked along the Great Divide of the U.S., slept underneath giant redwood trees, slaughtered my own chicken, a vision quest in the Saguaro national park, sky diving above the island of Oahu ...

Tam: Bathed in the Dead Sea, three week road trip with Luke through seven European countries, surreptitiously touched the ceiling frescoes in the Florence Duomo, danced on rooftops in at least four different American cities and two German ones.

Teach, Learn, Share

Luke: Anything about wind turbines and solar panels, environmental systems, industrial engineering, social and economic histories of the U.S.

Tam: Medieval and Early Modern history, crafting, making jam, feminism, art history.

We both love sharing our knowledge and learning more about the most pressing issues in the world and also the most trivial histories, facts, and stories.
