Got tagged for some questions
1 If you had to add something to humanity, what would your contribution be?
Since I hope to teach History, I'd want to produce a crop of kids with a genuine love of the subject. Maybe convince people that History doesn't have to be taught in a dry, boring manner
2 What is THE adventure you want to have before you die?
I want to see more of the world. All the natural wonders and great cities.
3 What do you love doing that you aren’t doing?
Right now I'm not travelling or teaching. Stuck flailing my way through school and financial mazes.
4 Where do you want to live?
I love the Willamette Valley. It;s one of the most beautiful regions of one of the most beautiful and geographically diverse states. That's why I love Oregon, You can go from coastal rain forest to high desert to temperate valley.
5 What do you want to accomplish?
I want to learn and pass on at least a few things worth knowing.
6 What do you want to be remembered by?
That I maybe helped a few people. That I got out and saw/did/said some interesting things. That I was a worthwhile person to know.
7 Who are your mentors?
A bunch of crusty old men that sat around a campfire and taught me more about History than I ever learned in a classroom.
8 What ignites your brain?
Problems that can't be solved head on, that take some progression and careful thought before the solution can be applied. Especially true of fighting experienced fencers for the first time.
9 What are you proud of so far?
I've taken a bunch of newbie fencers and helped to grow our little group into a bunch of fighters that are getting attention in the broader SCA community.
10 Where would you want to live most? Past, present, future?
As much as I love the past I'm rather fond of things like penicillin and plumbing. The future would be pretty damn cool but seeing the progression from the present would be much cooler.

Continual improvement of myself and helping others do the same.
