Teaching 8th Grade World Geography is much more than a job or an occupation to me, it is a lifestyle. Geography is who I am as a person and is my “passion”. At an early age I was taught the art of wandering the planet by my parents…ever since my childhood I have felt a constant desire to explore our planet. Below you will find a series if interactive Google Map highlighting some of my favorite experiences I have had around the world. Enjoy!
Most often questioned I get asked as a Geography Teacher = “What was/is your favorite place to visit?” ILLEGAL (UNFAIR) question to ask any Geographer. I can find beauty, adventure, and a unique story in all places.
