One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Flew across a forest in Costa Rica. Ok, it was ziplining, but it felt like flying and we were so high, you couldn't see the ground and so far, you couldn't see the other side.

Skiied in the Swiss Alps, the Tien Shan at Karakol, and from 13,000 feet in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado.

Parasailed around Issyk-kul.

Flew in a hot air balloon over Vilnius.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share a game of chess.
