Welcome

I am starting this blog just ahead of my leaving for Pohnpei, Micronesia where I will be a full-time teacher with the Jesuit Volunteer Corps.  I hope to use this blog as a way of sharing at least some of my experience of living and working in Pohnpei over the next two years.

I chose Ἡς Ἐμοῦ ζωή Ἐν Tῇ Μικρονησίᾳ for the title of my blog since it means “My Life in Micronesia” in Ancient Greek, which I found fitting.  For those interested, a brief morphological description of the title is [Ἡς-NOMINATIVE-3SG-DETERMINER] [Ἐμοῦ-GENITIVE-3SG-PRONOUN] [ζωή-NOMINATIVE-3SG-NOUN] [Ἐν-PREPOSITION] [Tῇ-DATIVE-3SG-DETERMINER] [Μικρονησίᾳ-DATIVE-3SG-NOUN].

As you can tell, I like to include language related topics in my posts, so stay tuned for many more to come in the future.  I look forward to bringing you along on this journey to, in and from Micronesia.

Only about a month to Orientation in Boston!
