    Description

    My name is Gideon

    Now, I work as a freelancer photo and videography. Beside that, I'm active in social organisation based on education especially for kids.

    I start it an English community based education at my village specially for kids/children. Indeed, I think that improving their English skills could help the child for their future job and also develop my village.

    My village is between two mountains, Sumbing and Sindoro. We have beautiful scenery. Mostly we plants tobacco and coffee. We produce great quality of tobacco as well as coffee.

    That's is me, tobacco, coffee and English based community education that I want to share with.
