One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking without any real plan from a hilltop temple near Rishikesh in India. We met some lovely people along the way, got covered in seeds, saw some beautiful cows, were treated to a banana brunch by the cows’ keeper, and enjoyed getting lost along the way.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach/Share: I can help teach what I know about anatomy and physiology (human) how to make some delicious vegan dishes and how to do 3 ball juggling, German and some basic Mandarin.
Learn: I want to learn French, Spanish, Gaelic and any other language that I can, how to dance to all the music, cook different foods, bake good bread, how to do different healing arts, surfing, rock climbing, circus, yoga, meditation

What I Can Share with Hosts

Conversation, laughs, my love of German, bouldering, cakes, dancing, and exploring new philosophies, concepts, ideas and ways of living- all this over some wine, a beer or just some water and a good meal :)
