One Amazing Thing I've Done
I spent a summer living in the US southwest. I never knew I'd love the desert so much.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'd like to learn how others see the world and how they perceive where they live. I can share a light-hearted, witty conversation full of laughs or a deep, meaningful one. I like talking to people about what they value and discussing what they see as as ideal way-of-life. I also like sharing perspectives on economics, politics, and current events.
My Interests
economics, space (the universe kind), urban revitalization, human geography, Caribbean history, hiking, sailing, farming
