CURRENT MISSION

To let the world be my oyster

ABOUT ME

I am an English teacher here in Prague. I work mostly with little kids, so my day consists of a lot of singing and dancing. I love to run, particularly in the woods, but anything anywhere works. I also love outdoor beer drinking, performing and watching improv comedy, food, talking, meeting new people and bad dancing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While running a marathon I met a very kind older man who was a) running barefoot and b) constantly spewing words of inspiration to everyone around him. By mile 20 he was surrounded by about 10 of us who would not dare run without him but who could not let him down by slowing down. It was amazing, I don't think I (or any of his new friends) would have finished in the time I did without him there.

Teach, Learn, Share

Don't assume, it makes an ass out of you and me.
Don't cross the street without looking both ways, getting hit by a car is a stupid way to die.
