One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The moments that left me awestruck were when I first saw the American desert and living in Sydney, Australia.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I guess I have much more to learn than to teach, to be quite honest. The most "practical" thing I could teach is visual arts, drawing, painting, graphic design, etc...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can make mean soups, carrot cakes and make a graffiti art on your wall.
