SVALBARD!
Swimming in the Baltic Sea in the Latvian Riga Bay (a must, if you ask me).

Teach, Learn, Share
music - languages - composition
I actually work as a music teacher, of piano, violin, and trumpet, and have previously taught French and English notions to really a wide range of students! I LOVE to share, and learn new things, especially new languages.
