Nice to meet you! My name is Bobbie, and this blog will chronicle my adventures as I travel and live abroad, explore my interest in and appreciation of various cultures, and apply and expand my more than a decade of experience in education and humanitarian work. All of this within the setting of newly-wed life in foreign service and a new post every two to four years! Want to know more? Drop by from time to time. 🙂
My hope is that this blog will:
- allow family and friends to travel along with me as I chase my dreams
- convey the individual or collective stories of the people and places I interact with so as to pay my respect to their history, humanity, and hospitality
- remind my former high school students that I live my mantra of “Culture, Communication, and Collaboration” in the hopes that they will remember how important each of those components is in achieving their global citizenship and professional success
- serve as an artifact for my son to read and understand more about me when he is old enough
