One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sang national anthems in a small Basotho hut in the Mountain Kingdom of Lesotho.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can converse for hours about education and learning. I can teach guitar and/or ukulele. I can tell ghost stories.

I would like to learn about HOMEBREWING and Woodworking. I also would enjoy lessons in bicycle maintenance and urban kayaking.
