Briefly: After receiving a mathematics-teaching degree in the US, I left and have been living, working (mostly teaching mathematics and physics), traveling and studying (picking up another mathematics degree in Germany, various language courses here and there, etc.) all over the world. In 2006 my wife (a Russian citizen who was also wandering around the world) and I became citizens of Israel, where we have lived (with occasional trips abroad) ever since.
I joined expat.com on 27 February 2014.
