One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've performed with my choir on the highest stage of China, Japan and the US.

I fell in love once.

Lived in the amazons for a week swimming in the Tiputini river, sitting under the Milky Way and watching bats have dinner at exactly 6:12 pm everyday.

Snorkeling in the Galapagos with sharks, penguins, sea lions, sea turtles, sting rays, sea horses.

Meeting multiple people I've met online and have not died.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Talking about language. Singing and being sunshine. Going on bike trips and being entertaining.
