One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I️ had two volunteering experiences that changed my life, one was living I️n Tennessee for two weeks with no WiFi, technology or any form to contact someone. We ate like vegans, meaning no meat or anything that comes from an animal. I️ hiked and helped out plant and clean up the mountains because the mountains are being destroyed so to making buildings and killing the natural life. I️ learned so much about the environment that it changed my perspective. The other volunteer experience was at an elementary school where I️ connected with a child that had autism, it was my first time trying to teach a child with autism and he touched my heart with his innocence and kindness.

Teach, Learn, Share

I️ want to learn about culture,music,hobbies and different countries it’s self. I️ am all about diversity.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My experiences!!! To have fun, to teach about books or the English language and to just go on a random adventure!! I️ am all about discovering new things, if you show me adventures or if you want tag along in my adventures that’s the key to hang out with me!
