CURRENT MISSION

There is a place for me that is different from where I am, so I move. Thank God for the stops along the way though.

ABOUT ME

Raised by the ocean, went to school in Raleigh, got me a job in Alabama, and the next step took me to Africa, Zambia to be exact.

I was teaching at a high school in Choma for the past year, just living a special thing. And I've come back to the United States with a mouth full of stories and a head full of dreams.

Next? Test more experiences, maybe in the Northeast, and relearn to love my homeland and countrymen. Then I'll get around to being a licensed teacher.

I do a lot of laughing and drink a lot of water.

Lapaires tend to emigrate every two generations, so I guess my eventual son might end up back in France.

PHILOSOPHY

I reckon there's a bigger plan than what I can do with my own hands and mind, and better things than this here world, so I'm on the Path that takes me closer to the Best.
I seek peace.

教，学，和分享

I know a lot about paper mills and their operation, a decent amount of chemistry, and some general construction. I know the ins and outs of the Zambian education system, and can lucidly talk about Christianity in the right setting.
I could stand to know more about gardening/farming and auto maintenance, and history too. And languages.
