CURRENT MISSION

Would like to learn more about other cultures and I love to travel!

ABOUT ME

Single, white, male elem. school teacher and I like to travel when I have the time and money. I've done some traveling overseas and I also taught in Taiwan in 99-2000 school year. Places I've been to include: England, France, Mexico, Jamaica, Cayman Islands, Taiwan, Thailand, Hong Kong, Okinawa, Macau, Russia, Ecuador, and China.

PHILOSOPHY

I am a Christian and try to live a spiritual life. I believe in God and am accepting and respectful of other religions. I believe life is a journey and we should experience as much as we can and help others along their way as best we can.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Got to visit Monterrey, Mexico for several days with my close friend Paco and his relatives in November, 2006, one month before he was killed in a car crash.
Got to visit Rochester, NY (and Niagra Falls) with my close friend Nancy in summer of 2008. She passed away about two months later in Sept. of 08.
I was again reminded that life and time are both precious and we should not squander either of them. I look forward to seeing again Paco, Nancy, and all my other friends and family who have passed on to the other side.

教，学，和分享

I'm a 36 year old teacher with some traveling experience and I've taught school for about 14 years now. I love to discuss philosophical, spiritual, and paranormal ideas!
