Ding! Dong! John Bell here! I am one of those people who felt normal was a script written for someone else. Born in New York where pizza is eaten right, I joined my family to become missionaries in my mother’s native country, Antigua and Barbuda where eat their slice with a fork. I sailed on ships and live in Europe before doing college.

I always held a wanderlust for the world around me — what place on the map I can see, where our worlds differ and share, how we can learn from each other. I love to talk and hear your story. Maybe over pizza?
