Travel information

I am currently

Description

-From the classroom of the booming city of Dallas, TX to the makeshift wooden classrooms of Guatemala's Lago Atitlán
-....coffee shop in front of Japan's Shibuya Crossing to the small carved out tea stand in Turkey's Sultanahmet neighbourhood.
-...working with former gang members from the Chicago neighborhoods, to planting rice in the Philippine's Bicol Region.

Education, farming (hands-on) and self-reflection activities are what has sustained, maintained, and brings joy to my ongoing & restless spirit.
