One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I stayed in Nicaragua for two months, volunteering as a guitar teacher and farm laborer in a rural community. In exchange, I had the opportunity to learn about another language in culture through total immersion. Definitely an amazing experience that I hope to repeat someday.

Teach, Learn, Share

Truthfully, there is much more I have to learn than that I can teach! I can share food!
