Finding a place under the sun.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I have few tricks up my sleeve and i would definitely like to learn how to play guitar a bit better. I would also love to learn Japanese or French (at least the greetings will do), and finally maybe few tips regarding exotic cuisines (or general cooking, because I am terrible at it) would be great.
