ABOUT ME
I am a funloving yet serious Grexican (Greek Mexican American) born and raised in the US. I am living in Greece for an indefinite period of time teaching and learning on a constant basis. I am a lover of the arts, dancing (TANGO/Swing) and anything cultural. I am a lover of languages, and etymology-I guess you could call me an amateur anthropologist-I am a lover of the world-to learn and experience a new and different cultures keeps me going.
PHILOSOPHY
Enjoy Life, responsibly-it is taking that responsibility and nurturing it into making right decisions.

Algo increíble que he hecho
I have helped to build a school, passed out food and aid to orphans of La Ceiba, Honduras, seen the smiles and enthusiasm of their hearts-this is priceless-
Skydiving in Namibia-beautiful...
Enseña, aprende, comparte
I teach languages and know Greek fairly well-so am open to all kinds of language exchanges-would love to learn more Italian, Russian and Arabic, among others-
I am am amateur cook-love to try new recipes, experiment with different ingredients, methods, tricks-and to learn from others-could we trade culinary secrets?
I love the outdoors-but haven't really explored this and would like to-
Water sports-again, love it, but haven't too much experience in it so I'd be more than willing to learn more about this.
I'd like to learn to lead Tango/Swing
