When he discovered foreign English teaching, he and his wife disposed of nearly all of their worldly possessions to take on the challenge of immersing themselves in this new profession and traveling to China, Chile and Canada. Along the way, they visited other countries and encountered many memorable characters and adventures in the process. In addition to writing Conversations With a Deaf Cat, (And Other Confessions of a Foreign English Teacher) he has also written The Illegal From Holland, which describes how he inadvertently caused his wife to be deported back to her native Holland and their year-long adventures traveling through Europe while waiting to get her U.S. visa reinstated.
In addition to writing, Michael still works periodically in the corporate world to fund his future journeys. He and his wife are also foster hosts for a cat rescue group in California. Although they now reside in the United States, they consider themselves citizens of the world and will eventually depart for more adventures as foreign teachers and/or volunteers.показать меньше
