One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teaching English at Big Brother Mouse in Laos.

Taking a three day silk dyeing and weaving class on the Mekong River. Hearing the stories of the Buddha from two former monks. Eating breakfast and lunch with the workers and their kids.

Seeing my students everyday. Helping and encouraging them to better themselves one day at a time.

Seeing my students get into and being successful at college.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn about the world and its people. I can teach you to swim, take photographs, and do the dougie.
