CURRENT MISSION

I've been in the education field all my life …. and I believe true education comes in 3 different forms ……
1.) Reading
2.) Travel
3.) Schools and Universities
……. in that specific order. 👍
Therefore ….. If I can help in educating you through the aspects of travel 🧳 ….. then I’m looking forward to assisting you, with providing you a comfortable couch to rest your body at night, so you can explore the sites and scenery of the great city of Los Angeles during the day.
