ABOUT ME

I have been an ESL, FSLand special education teacher. I have so much fun working with my students- I learn so much from them everyday. As most teacher, I will probably describe some funny anecdotes from my classroom tee hee. I also have with me my camera to capture life ... still have much to learn but I would love it if one of my pics was selected in national geographic's picture of the year... one day hopefully. I recently discovered a new passion- scuba diving, and I have completed my second level with PADI, being underwater is just so relaxing :)

Things I like, local food, partying (learn drinking games from other countries ) dancing to my favorite songs (only if I drank ).

Outdoors activities like camping, hiking, fishing, BBQ's

The inner-child in me also likes to play games. I love to see all the touristy stuff, to discover the places I visit by watching people live their day-to-day lives.

PHILOSOPHY

My glass is always half full.

Travel Light

“Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up, it knows it must outrun the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle, or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're the lion or a gazelle-when the sun comes up, you'd better be running.”
