About Me

PHILOSOPHY

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

― Mark Twain

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Realizing one of my dreams to live in Paris.
Traveled four months around S-E Asia. Rock climbing in northern Vietnam was pretty awesome too!
Teaching English in a rural village in Manipur, India.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach ice skating for those who haven't tried it yet. Teaching Finnish is also a lot of fun, or baking even though I think I'm the one who needs practice.
I love languages, learning new words and phrases. I'd love to learn how to play guitar or piano.
