My parents were diplomats and also way cooler than me. I fell into ESL teaching as a way to live abroad, and have kept at it ever since. In my spare time I make music. Here is some of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8F31ZCC7DhE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfH-tM4yLrE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ls-C0N6Y5PM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8iC6Xilb3Y I try to make everyone laugh, but usually fail.
