About Me

Wondering about MY Name? Read myspace blog above: "PRECIOUS??? Why PRECIOUS???"

************************************************************ ****
Sometimes people mistakenly link my name with Gollum... But "Precious" is not Gollum. Gollum was just one of a myriad of my bearers... nor is Precious the ring itself... It is the FORCE that is Precious. The FORCE that may be with you and with me.

I love pictures! If you're visually oriented like me, check out my recent pics and stories from around ASIA...
Shutterfly Albums: Taiwan, Thailand, Hawaii, & Japan PICS

NEW FLICKR ALBUMS: Kyoto, Bali, & Old Friends

************************************************************ **** I've just returned to the U.S. after being in Taiwan for 6 years studying Tai Chi, Chinese, and the Philosophy of Teaching. I'm currently traveling around America visiting old friends and family that I so dearly missed during my years in Asia. Seeking partnerships in China? Let me know if I can help?
