About

I was born in the US but have lived and worked in Mexico, Spain and as a volunteer in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Most of my career was spent teaching Spanish (as a first language) and French to students on the border between the US and Mexico. Most of the students spoke Spanish as their first language. I am a widower; i have two adult children and two grandchildren. I am an active participant in several civic/patriot organizations. One of my favorite activities is to go to the gym, ride my bike, walk and swim as often as i can.
Interests: travel, reading (in English, biking, meeting new people from different countriesl, walking, Spanish and French), Working out in the gym, sightseeing, music of all types
