Things I like to do include practicing guitar, cooking, hiking, traveling, and enjoying life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most enjoyable experiences was visiting a friend in a small Russian village in the middle of winter. It was very cold, but an awesome trip and I met some very cool people.

A very cool place I went was Troll Tongue in Norway: check out the photo in my profile pics.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook. I can share stories of places I've traveled; my life story is always interesting to people (i.e. why did I move to Russia?, etc.) If you are interested in meditation, nutrition, natural health, holistic medicine, etc. then we can "compare notes" and share ideas.
