I love life and all the key components that bring about human passion and expanded learning. That is the reason why my own interests are so varied, from the performing arts, gemology, foreign policy, political skills, learning, teaching, pop culture, Montessori, sustainability, theology, metaphysics, media and food ......technology, a convergence.
I am a Community organizer/builder, Brainstormer, Change Agent, Connector, Educator/Teacher, Explorer, Global soul, Idea generator, Doctoral Student and an imagination advocate.
hi Ana,
I have been in UAE for a month now, but been frustrated waiting for our intenet connection! I have had intermittant access, but now have a temporary data card, so back in action - for the moment!
Hey There Ana,
We have just had Eid, which is a holiday after Ramadan.
I have had a week walking around my local area and exploring, taking photos etc
The more time I spend here the more I like it.
Living here is really changing my perspective on the world.
Its hilarious/tragic following the US elections and all the pantomime around that.
One has to keep ones sense of humour, otherwise it all seems rather pathetic, from the point of view of living in a progressive peaceful Middle Eastern country. The people here are wonderful, open and if only the US etc would realise that empathy, understanding and positive action would enable things to be so much better. I meet lovely people from Pakistan, Afghanistan etc on a daily basis.
Anyway, just my off the cuff comments here!
Where are you in Southern California?
Cheers,
Gavin
