Music, Movies, and Books
Too many to include here...I have an artistic side. It's introspective, meditative, but also not too serious. I appreciate good photography, art films, paintings, literature and of course, good music. As I write this, I'm thinking of the Rodin exhibition I just saw not too long ago in Montreal. There are of course others, painters, and writers, that I appreciate and enjoy. I also like good live music; I think I know what's good when I hear it, and then it's delightful.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My life is a two-part story:
Part I. Left home at 17 to live in England.
Part II. Decided on a legal career at 28.
So far, I've never looked back.
Teach, Learn, Share
We never stop learning about ourselves through interacting with others.
What I Can Share with Hosts
The culmination of my experiences living, studying and working in Asia, the US, and England, has made me what and who I am today...basically, an evolving work-in-progress. Many parts put together...make us who we are. I suppose I can sincerely and graciously share who I am, with anyone who hosts me.
