One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Some kids I met in Munich asked me to come snowboarding with them but I had never been snowboarding or skiing. They were nice enough to suit me up with gear but they didn't really want to spend their time teaching me the way of the board. So I spent four days teaching myself to snowboard in the Alps and on the last day the guys who invited me took me up to the top of the mountain where I was scared to fucking death but somehow made it to the bottom alive.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share with you the art of being foolish and impulsive.
