はじめまして
I never really did an #introduction, just jumped in and never went back to Xitter.
A bit of an explanation now - I've transplanted to #Kobe #Japan from #Pittsburgh for my #ProfLife 4 month Fall sabbatical - with my family!
We #Homeschool our kids, so this worked out well (next yr Kid1 will head to college - last opportunity for this sort of adventure, so I snatched it). Wish me luck!
Thanks all who follow or just come across & boost - you mastofriends have all been gracious and kind! 🙏🏽

I'm quite interested in following your sabbatical experience in Kobe.

We returned from Australia this year & are considering Japan for the next opportunity when the kids are older.

@Sheril it's terrific. I lucked out on a JSPS (long term) fellowship and timing with kids. Check dates on JSPS if you are thinking about it. And am happy to provide any pointers if you need!

Thank you! This looks interesting and very helpful. I will certainly reach out as we think more seriously on this. I hope you have a wonderful experience!
