Introduction	About me? Well, I'm a world traveler, and I've lived in four different countries. Though the U.S. has many wonderful opportunities, I admit I really miss my birthplace which is Paris, France. Since I've started my own tutoring business, I've had less chance to travel and see friends. So, with more time on my hands, I've started this blog and have also submitted my poetry to several different publishing houses and international poetry societies. So far, my work has been well received and I was even awarded the 2008 Editor's prize for a poem I wrote called "Transcendence" (see blog). Eventually, I'd like to get back to writing and shooting photos for a living. Though I love teaching, I'm happiest writing, listening to music, and sharing good times with dear friends. God Bless!
Interests	My interests have always included the arts; drama, fine art, photography, and poetry. I'm also an avid fan of international politics, history, and current affairs. These were my favorite topics to write about when I freelanced for numerous newspapers and magazines. Finally though I'm not a big fan of watching sports I do love to snow ski, swim, ice skate, practice yoga, and meditate.
Favorite movies	Too many to list.
Favorite music	Music, animals and God get me through the tough times. I'm a true child of the 1970's which, in my opinion, produced some of the best rock, blues, and reggae to date. I'm old school with a deep love of the blues and reggae. However, who can contest the brilliance of the Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Steely Dan, Yes, Led Zeppelin, The Allman (sp?) Brothers, Little Feat, J.J. Cale, Crosby-Stills & Nash, Cream, Jimi Hendrix, the Dead, ZZ top, Heart, Joni Mitchell, and so many others. I also appreciated the revival of alternative music in the 90s with Alice in Chains, Nirvana, Linlcon Park (sp?), Guns n' Roses, and Sublime.
Favorite books	There's too many to list but I give a special nod to C.S. Lewis, Moliere, John Grisham, Linda Goodman, John Forsythe, and Robert Ludlum. The teachings of Jesus, and Buddha have also proven invaluable.
