One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Rowing and fishing on a lake in Finland on a chilly summer afternoon, then collecting mushrooms for the sauce in the backyard, chilling in the sauna then running to the house naked and finishing the day with some ciders while having a lovely conversation. Having grown up in a capital this closeness to the nature was one of the most amazing experience I have ever got.
A slightly different, but equally wonderful thing I have contributed to was that one year I spent working with autistic children.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you about psychological stuff, like help you identify your personality type, help you prep for a job interview or talk about mindfulness and meditation. You could also learn some Hungarian which is considered to be one of the most difficult languages so good luck with that. :-)
