Greetings from South America. I am originally from Los Angeles, California, USA. I am currently teaching English at a university in Bucaramanga, Santander, Colombia. How I became an English professor is a long and intoxicating story filled with highs and lows. I have a dog back home in Los Angeles and I miss her so. Her name is Mama and she is an eight year old Shiba Inu. She is family to me. I love to travel with Mama. We are like Bonnie and Clyde, Batman and Robin, or Jordan and Pippen.
