Most Memorable Sports Moment

The absolute adventure provided through the sport of football. Through conscious practice and patience, I’ve been able to travel the world, meet new people, learn languages, and taste delicious foods. There is beauty behind every corner and within every human, if only we could say, “do you want play?”

With a ball at your feet and an outstretched hand, no words need be spoken, you’ll have a new friend.
