I live in the country about an hour from South Bend and Fort Wayne. I grew up on a radio station in Liberia, learned Arabic while serving in the Navy, and have worked in linguistics and research. I love to travel globally and always try to learn the language of whatever country I'm visiting. I can get by in Spanish, French, and Arabic but am only fluent in English (all varieties). I've been married to Anita since 1986 and we have 9 children, ages 11-30. We homeschool with a Lifestyle of Learning philosophy.
