I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

The main idea behind this page is to help stay in touch with people once I set off later this year. Specifically, I'm selling off most of my worldly possessions and setting off as a vagabond-writer / techno-gypsy; living on very little money and through a couple laptops and assorted gizmos. I'll be starting off in Europe and later may move on to other parts of the world, but it is far too early to give any specifics. The whole idea is to be able to wander about without obligation for a while. However, by keeping track of this page and/or my alternate blog - http://johnsigler.blogspot.com/ - anyone can keep in touch easy enough. I'm also setting up alternative communication channels as well (int'l mobile phone, Skype, &c.) which are available if needed.

If you are interested in hiring me as a writer [ National Writer's Union , UAW Local 1981 AFL-CIO] or for any other service, please contact me through my professional website: http://www.johnsigler.com/

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

New and interesting people that share my interests, people interested in hiring me to do something for them once I set off, and people in places that I'm heading to.

Not a lot to report&

Basically things are still pretty much the same as the last time I blogged, thus the lack of recent blogging. I have fully paid for my TEFL certification now and am doing some online work prior to get...

Yet another new plan...
