我做过的一件令人惊叹的事
The AT was peaceful, Petra was breathtaking, Cu Chi tunnels were suffocating, and the Great Wall was awe inspiring. I've been completely lost in another country (twice, with the same person, a couple years apart- shout out to Wenli!) and now laugh about the adventures. One of my greatest joys is spending time with my loved ones, especially my beautiful and brilliant (I'm biased) niece.
教学、学习、分享
So many things I'd like to learn...Spanish, how to cook, to dance, play the guitar, play tennis. Something I can teach...I'm not exactly sure. I speak English and know a fair amount about US higher education. I was in a sorority but I'm not telling our secrets. Share...I'm a sucker for travel stories and I love learning about hometowns far from where I am.
