I would probably self-identify as a female rural West Coast (of USA) Caucasian, but that wouldn't include, as labels often don't, my journey from a small monocultural mill town to a solo sabbatical in six countries (in '91). Now I'm on to the exciting sojourn of retirement (from full-time worklife five years ago). I love travel and art and aesthetics, as well as almost all cats and dogs I've met. This blog is just for fun and experimenting with the tools. It should be amusing...

~I've just retired from 30 years in CA public education (25+ in both international and domestic programs), where I learned a whole lot from diverse experiences & loved my students dearly. I've been a community college counselor, and an instructor, but have taught from university to pre-K. I owe much to my intercultural training, and a generous and eclectic number of mentors/mentees. I enjoy facilitating classes, leading workshops, and being alive to help with creating a sane world. Best of all, I love to network with other interesting folks on a broad number of useful topics. I'm blessed to live in the rural mountainous woods a bit off I-5 w/family and an extended o'hana. I have travelled in SE Asia, Australia, Japan, Europe, Canada, Mexico, & Guatemala, so far.
