Nepal – Julian

 I thought that Connor before he went to Nepal, did not like kids but after about 5 days there he started to enjoy them. My thoughts are that he’s not an author but he’s someone who cares for poor countries that are poor and need help. He is an amazing man and now loves kids. [...]

I always loved the Greek myths because they all mostly include; adventure, action, romance, gory and royalties. My favorite story is probably the Trojan War and when Odysseus went back [...]
