One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Flew an Aeroflot plane over the Ural mountains when I was 9.
Once shot a fireball from the pickup of my guitar while making some noise.
Teach, Learn, Share
I've recently graduated from Alderleaf Wilderness College, a 9-month course studying naturalist and bushcraft skills. I'm interested in learning French, Arabic and Hindi and/or Bengali.
Also any practical knowledge of the outdoors. I can teach and learn some of that.
Oh, and some good conversations could be had around the topics of yoga in the west, Tantra, and other more bizarre Indian traditions...
