One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing Puccini's La Boheme at the Royal Opera House in London; Running with the Bulls in Pamplona, Spain.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to share my experience with mechanics. Studying Chinese has given me some different knowledge, and I will share more about that after studying there next year.
I hope to learn and discuss anything about literature, philosophy, and people.
Communication is fascinating, so I am open to learning new languages, even just a few words!
