About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to write a children's book.

ABOUT ME

I've been in asia for close to 25 years. (That's two animal cycles.) Started out working in the orange and olive groves of Greece, got trained in English teaching in Egypt, taught adults in Japan and have worked my way into English tutor for kids in Taiwan.

PHILOSOPHY

Everyone should intermarry so there would be more understanding and less hatred in the world.

Interests

I write children's stories and do watercolor and drawing and am learning pastels. I'm also learning Spanish. I always thought it was an easy language. HA!

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies and books, yes! Boy, do I love movies and books.
On books, I read mostly fiction.

Some of the amazing things I have seen and done are: Bright blue starfish In Mexico, the Pyramids of Egypt, the cherry blossoms of Japan, The fairy penguins of Australia, an elephant trek.
