Teach, Learn, Share

I can tell you about the places I've visited and about my country and its people. I like to share my travel experiences with my friends and all the amazing things I have done. I want to learn to play musical instruments, foreign language etc.. And I can show you around if I have time.

2 of my favourite quotes that I live by :

-Travel while you're young and able. Don't worry about the money, just make it work. Experience is far more valuable than money will ever be.

-Remember that every person you meet has a story to tell, a lesson to teach and a dream to do
