Profile Information

What city, and country are you from originally?: Australia

What are you doing/plans here?: ESL teacher

A little something about yourself - hobbies, interests, favorites, goals, etc: I like to travel though I haven't travelled a lot. I like to learn about other cultures and I would like to use my qualifications to teach English overseas. I've been on an international penpal site www.interpals.net since mid-2009. And from a penpal's list of quotes I'd like to share this one, by Dina Mulock:

"Oh the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are -- chaff and grain together -- certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with the breath of kindness blow the rest away."
