One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-Sitting in a smokehouse in Japan with a room full of men I don't know knockin back highballs and devouring steaks.

-Killing a goat for my 12th birthday in a small little village in Gambia

-Being interrogated by security in Narita because I lost the address of my host in Tokyo

-Standing In Aosta Valley talking to a woman who speaks an old dialect of Italian

- Working in a jail

Teach, Learn, Share

I feel like Americans, but more specifically African Americans have a not so positive rep around the world. I hope that while being a pretty cool guy I can flip the negative stereotypes given to us around the world, while learning about the world at the same time. Simply put, to teach and be taught.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good laughs, a few rounds a smash brothers, an open ear,
and access to all the knowledge my head can hold.

Or just a good time.
