Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite novel is "Shosha" by Issac Bashevis Singer. I recently read (and disliked) "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy. When I drive around I listen to audio lectures by Joseph Koterski of Fordham University on Aristotle's Ethics and talks by American actor Alan Alda -- his reflections.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I taught English for two months in a small village in Ladakh (Jammu and Kashmir State, northern India).

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Focusing, but the main thing I have to exchange is a bit more practical -- a place for you to stay!

Countries I’ve Visited

Belgium, India, Mexico, South Korea

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada, China, Poland, United Kingdom, United States
