One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's impossible to pick one event or experience. Most recently, though, I spent two weeks in Iran. It was such a privilege to experience everything that beautiful country has to offer and have any negative stereotypes we perpetuate about the place smashed every time I encountered the unfailing hospitality of the people. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always interested in learning new languages and willing to help anyone with their English!
