What the World Taught Me... and other lessons along the way I’m a world traveler who is curious about the places I go. I have worked in corporate America, run my own business in the Former Soviet Union in Baku, Azerbaijan, been an ex-pat and a “returnee”. I’m an observer of life and a journalist at heart. My passion is discovering the unique characteristics that each culture has and that are worth knowing and sharing. This blog is a way of not only remembering where I’ve been, but also a way to share the impressions and lessons I think I’ve retained. Some fun, some serious, all good lessons. I hope you’ll share your impressions and lessons with me as we go. I look forward to chatting with you about the lessons you’ve learned. Thanks for coming along on the journey!
