One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Discovering a Masai village in Kenya. It was in the middle of nowhère and the father of the family had 5 wifes and 18 children. Younger kids came to touch my skin because they had never seen a white guy ! We could only communicate by gestures and smiles but it was a wonderful experience !
Dancing with kids in the middle of rice terraces and travelling on the roof of the bus in Philippines.
Swimming with wild dolphins in the Atlantic Ocean near the Azores
Snorkelling with a 10m whale-shark in the Maldives
Spotting leopards, cheetahs and lions at night on a water hole in Kenya
Teach, Learn, Share
I would love to teach French or Spanish to my hosts/guests , or even English if you don't speak it.
I want to learn things about your culture and your country.
I can share experiences I lived during my travels, my job or my every day life.
What I Can Share with Hosts
As I said above, I can share experiences I lived during my travels, my job or my every day life.
I love teaching a language, explaining historical events or things about animals.
