Hello! Very pleased to be joining this community. My home is America and I am currently on a 12 year adventure of teaching and traveling. These days I teach at a boarding school for 'gifted and talented' students in Gebze, just outside Istanbul. It is not far from SAW airport so if you need to crash here I may consider it if the school allows.

My passion is people, music, film, travel and mostly reading. If sound like an introvert please don't get me wrong - I am friendly and cheerful, full of stories and always eager to get to know new people. Please drop me a line if you need anything in Turkey.
