One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swam with the dolphins near Kaikoura, climbed Ngaruhoe mountain in Tongariro National Park/NZ
Cared for girls' rights at school nobody would take care of, the girls where brave and told the truth, so we kind of stood up for our rights, they got rid of this touchy teacher...
cycled against the winds on a holland bike (no gears working) around the West Coast of Ireland, got to see beautiful deserted Islands, rough coastline and sandy beaches in Western Scotland, took time out to care for myself, loved and received love

Teach, Learn, Share

Am about to learn forestry skills and building with natural material, so any ideas for projects are welcome.

Have recently started doing filmprojects with my Canon XL1, a great video camera, so would be happy to exchange any kind of experiences in filmmaking.

I'm still a P.E. teacher, so I could show you all sorts of sports, especially outdoor activities and dancing. I used to teach English, Music (play Djembe, Ocean drum and guitar a wee bit) and Domestic Science at school as well, so if you need to know anything about that.

I would love to learn how to play the saxophone one day.

Things I found out: You've got more friends than you think you have, but less than you think you know...There is a time and place for everything...if you don't know, where to go, just stay where you are and see, what happens...
Start where you are,living in the presence and seeing things as they are gives inner peace
