Belfast Bound
Mid-November brought with it our second and last IFSA-Butler sponsored trip, and it was one we’d all been waiting for since we arrived in Ireland. Not only is Belfast one of the top ten cities in Europe to visit (or … Continue reading

Do Hamburgers eat hamburgers?
Last week, I taught 5 Thanksgiving lessons. Meaning, I taught the same lesson five times. Three times on Tuesday, each class back-to-back. That was a little surreal. All of my classes thought Americans give gifts on Thanksgiving, which I find … Continue reading

Last Monday, I ate a lot of vegetarians. Excuse me, I mean, I ate with a lot of vegetarians. And one other vegan. We went to Taj Mahal, a restaurant which promotes itself as being an Indian/Italian restaurant, but is … Continue reading
