One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mistakenly drove to East Berlin instead of West Berlin while the Wall was still up.

Started a 4 month house exchange in Manhattan on Sept. 9, 2001. After 9/11 was a wonderful time to be in NYC. New Yorkers were beautiful.

Learned to cook good Thai food.

Saw Bernini's David, Rape of Proserpine, and Apollo and Daphne exquisite sculptures in the Gallery Bourghese, Rome: incredible!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach anyone how to make a delicious Thai curry. It is very easy if you can find the ingredients which are available at most Asian food stores.
