I have studied in France and UK: Norwich, Canterbury and Cambridge University attaining a degree in Japanese, and fully qualified as a teacher of English to foreign students (I've taught in various countries across Europe and the far-east, (Philippines and Japan.)) Over the years I have written several books of poetry, containing my own artwork. Teaching English, running a museum, and driving limousines are among the roles I have had, however, spinal injury has affected my life considerably, and I write profusely health issues, well-being, recovery, and Nature's unique place among our survival. My poems have been published extensively across the world from the United States and Canada to Asia, mostly in the field of health and inspiration, and I'm currently studying for a diploma in Psychology.
