About I am a very soon to be retired high school literature teacher who has had two very successful, year long exchanges to Europe, a summer exchange to France and I am looking for more exchanges around the corner. I would also consider non-consecutive exchanges or hosting people. I love history, arts, folk culture, cuisine for any country. Possibly exchange may include my sister and her retired teacher husband who are world travelers, or perhaps two of my grown children.
