Born in the Midwest, I grew up in LA, moved to the East Coast at 19 and to France at 32. In fact it seems by moving to the Washington DC area, where I lived from 1979-1982, I retraced my own mama's odyssey. She too left Minneapolis for WDC for a time in her misspent youth. I have been living in France about half my life now. Taught conversational English to adult business people and researchers.. Wonderful kids and grandkids. Live in the southwest suburbs of Paris.

Grateful for my simple and abundant life; my rich spiritual inheritance. Hopeful for everyone. https://youtu.be/g9VO03I_hVU (family history in English) https://youtu.be/GpNVSF4VkRo (family history in French)'
