Description
Hi all! I am a science teacher on a sabbatical this year and looking to learn from and connect with local communities worldwide. I have been living and teaching outside of the US for 15 years now, and although traveling itself brings me joy, it's really getting to know and love a place and culture that brings true fulfillment. I hope to find that here!

I have a working vocabulary in Spanish, although I have not practiced in a very long time. It would be easiest to learn Spanish, Italian, or Portuguese. I also have some very basic Chinese and Russian from my time living in China and Ukraine.Compétences et connaissances que j'aimerais partager ou apprendre

Autres infos...
I have lived and taught in China, Ukraine, Lebanon, and most recently Turkey (Turkiye). I love the outdoors and being in nature, so any kind of hiking, cycling, camping, or adventure activities are exciting to me! I am entertaining the idea of a career change after teaching for 18 years, so this year will hopefully help me get some other ideas about where my passions lie. I have two amazing kitties who will continue to reside in Turkey this year in the care of friends and sitters.
