Shantou, China

splendid isolation Different. European born, US educated and raised, lived outside the US more than inside in the last decade or two. The French have a word for it: deracinee. Uprooted, and enjoy it. Home is where my work is when it is going well. There is no home when the work goes badly. Spoiled by an occupation that paid me to be a student all my life - journalism. And now I continue to learn from my students who are indulgent and let me hang with them.
