Teach, Learn, Share
Teach:
There are a lot of thing that I surprisingly know, like:
-Camping (fire starting, herbs, survival and more)
-Art (painting techniques, creating colors, infusing history and styles together on about anything, how to build a human size shed, how to design on a floor plan through Revit and on graphing paper, ho w to sculpt from almost any materials, and much much much more)
-Cooking: since I've been cooking in more than 4 restaurants, I've remembered many recipes such as pizzas, salads, bread, pastries, coffee, American foods, Italian, and Vegetarian/ Vegan dishes
-Sports: I can show you the correct formation in hitting/spiking/passing and volleyball, soccer, badminton, karate, and a few more, can't think of any more haha
-Instruments: correct position and tunes for the violin, piano, bit of guitar, flute, and singing (from my friend who was in choir class)
-Gaming: how to get tons of money on the Sims, secret pathways in Mario Kart (I am the champion hahaha)
-Traveling Hacks: How to roll your cloths to correctly fit in your luggage, being a minimist (bringing little products/reranged clothing to carry less), hacks to resist getting stuck in the crowd, finding pretty good deals, and more
-And a lot more but I can't think of anything else on the top of my head
Learn: To continue and perfect everything I know. I am constantly wanting to learn so much more. Knowledge is power!!
Share: I love showing the little knickknacks I have from places I've visited, photos I took, stories to tell, and future goals that I have for the world. Also, to practice with the languages I know and learning with other people around the world
