ABOUT ME

Curious, thoughtful, wandering and wondering, I'm always interested to learn about new places, cultures, and languages. I live the good life as a laid back academic type and like to share my free time relaxing with friends.

PHILOSOPHY

为无为, The Golden Rule, The Noble Eightfold Path

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Love independent and foreign films, classical music and opera, and all types of books. I love bookstores and libraries - they are like a second home to me!

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I have been so lucky it is very hard to choose! But I think the most amazing things I have seen in my life are The Great Wall, Macchu Picchu, and the Hagia Sofia in Istanbul.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can teach many types of cooking (American, Italian, French), I am even better at teaching baking (desserts not bread). I love coffee and wine and tea and am happy to share my knowledge about those things. My academic background is in world politics so I can always talk about those things at length!
