I am in the health care field at a 'graduate professional' level. In my work I regularly come into contact with and care for all types of people in the United States, from all socio-economic levels and 'ethnic backgrounds'

Luck and the choice of the right specialty in my field have allowed me to travel widely. These travels have generally NOT been related to work, but motivated purely by personal interest. I have visited 85 countries, and have had the good fortune to be able to return often to certain parts of the world which have 'drawn me in' to a deeper level of involvement than that of a 'tourist'. Brazil, France, Cuba, the U.K. and the Hawaiian Islands come most rapidly to mind. As a child I was a good mime, hence now I speak English, French, Portuguese, Spanish, Italian, and very little Japanese.

Tropical botany/horticulture, 'social anthropology' and writing are among my so-called 'interests'. My birthplace remains my home city, and it is a place of diversity, superficiality, and (if you look closely) great natural beauty. Enough said.........
