One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

July 4 glacier in China, Persepolis, danced and sang with a whole crew of Iranians and a bunch of travelers from all over as we made our way from Tehran to Istanbul, scrambling and repelling in Arched National Park, crazy buses in Panama... the list goes on everything is so amazing....

Sharing is my thing. I like to learn and teach through shared experience. I'm ever thankful for my teachers as well as the teacher inside me (a little yogi philosophy).
