About

I am a native of Binghamton in upstate New York, USA, determining what I might want to do with my life to some extent while living in Wroclaw, Poland to prepare for the September B1 Polish Language Exam, I lived in Ho Chi Minh City/Saigon, Vietnam for a year as an English Teacher at VUS and later at the Asian High School. I am interested in many things and find many things enjoyable, though putting those interests together with my values, especially my aspiration to help others, into a coherent career no less a temporary job is challenging indeed! In all honesty, this is a work in progress. (To those asking if I mean writing this section or myself, the answer is yes.) Feel free to contact me! It isn't difficult for me to be comfortable around others. Take care, va tam biet czyli do zobaczenia!
Interests: hiking, exploring, philosophy, languages, discussion, teaching, science, piano, learning, , art, volunteering, education, spirituality, mathematics, nature, talking, adventure, world affairs, music, running, economics, vegetarian food, people

If you do the health check in your home country, you will likely need to have it notarized and validated by your country and then the Vietnamese Embassy in your country, later having it officially translated into Vietnamese here for 80 000 VND/page ... Read More
