Présentation
À propos de moi
In Hungary for the summer!
CURRENT MISSION
To be a great teacher.
ABOUT ME
I'm in Si Racha .
I've been teaching and traveling for 8 years. Before I was a Medic/Firefighter and Community Developer.
I have lived in several other countries outside of the US, where I taught English. In addition, I've been to more than 35 other countries.
I feel I've seen more of the world then the US. I hope to remedy that.
"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars..." -Jack Kerouac

Centres d'intérêt
Community involvement, architecture. I hate cultureless cookie cutter housing. no i haven't burned anything down in awhile. Cooking, Wine, BBQ is a usual, live music, Beer thats not budlight. I'll go to almost any concert. I've seen MC Hammer, boy can dance. reading dead peoples philosophies. midnight quesadillas. Road trips. Movies that don't suck or at least that suck and make me laugh. eating oreos. sucking the marrow out of life and than later wasting it. ice cream. new music. making pretty girls smile. helping more than impeding. trying everything once, maybe twice. new food.
