Music, Movies, and Books

I love rock, opera, classical, tango, etc. I'm CRAZY about music.
The same thing goes for movies. Loooove movies. All BUT rom.coms.
And books, of course.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit my job, left everything behind.
I worked aboard a ship for 7 months. Loved it.
Stepped on an iceberg in Alaska.
White nights in Alaska and in Russia.
Snorkeled in St. Maarten.
Walked the streets of Paris.
Got lost in Rome (of course)
Etc. Etc. Etc.

Teach, Learn, Share

It can always be worse. Enjoy what you have. Don't focus on what's missing. Focus on the blessings. Look around you. Stop to smell the flowers.
I'm a teacher (Spanish and English as foreign languages).
