Hello! My name is Joshua Wells and (by January/February, 2012) I will be teaching English at Riyadh Polytechnic Institute. I just left China where I taught in an international school for five years. Time for a change! I am from Santa Fe, NM. Looking forward to making new friends here in my adopted city, and hopefully learning some Arabic while living here.
Interests: photography, camping, , film, bike riding, hiking, shopping, fine arts, traveling., reading, museums
