我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Taking a dive from a high rock in a river in Northern-Iraq. As two Kalashnikov gunmen look at me with enviousness in their eyes I realize that all people have their fears. And that we are all equal, no matter what your weapon of choice is.

Clumsy, but socially and linguistically developed. Bizarrely interested in (alternative) music.
