One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Life is full of adventures big and small. Sometime its the little things that are the most amazing and memorable. So I'll say;

biking around in the hutong neighbourhood in Beijing China. Seeing all the cool alleyways and vendors. Hard to put into words but was one of my highlights of my trip to China.

Teach, Learn, Share

We've only got one life. So don't be afraid to step out and do what you love. Don't be afraid to fail. Life is too short to live in the prison of fear. Just step out and find out. We learn from our mistakes if we're not afraid to make them.
