Very eclectic and usually not mainstream. So many good ones, too many to list.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Performed Greek Tragedy in an Ancient Greek Theatre. Lived in Kerala, India on the Arabian Sea. Saw Theyyam in Kerala. Spent time with gypsies in Greece. Saw Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom...amazing! Saw and experienced the unthinkable, very dark side of China and survived it...harrowing experience. Saw the Batu Caves in Kuala Lumpur. Swimming at night on Rabbit Island near Kep, Cambodia is truly magical...as is the freshly caught crab & seafood and kampot pepper.
