Your adventure thus far at REW?

I really feel at home here.

But what I actually do is

Making sure we didn't forget something!

Biggest real estate adventure?

First, staying in a 450 sq. ft. apartment with my partner with two suitcases of stuff we owned after immigration and then buying our first apartment a couple of years ago. As the first in our family to immigrate, it was a very emotional milestone.

Biggest adventure, period?

There were some before my prefrontal lobe developed at age 27. Now, I wouldn't do a bungee jumping at the place I did nor to fly a hot air ballon with a drunken pilot. My recent adventures are related to traveling. I was also really impressed by XCaret Park in Mexico.
