Wow! You've had so many wonderful unique experiences!!! I would give almost anything to have that kind of life, filled with so much travel and experience. lol. I've never been out of the States before, but I'm going to Mexico this summer so that will be fun! My husband said to tell you that he envies your language abilities. If he could, he would learn every language possible. lol. We once tried to learn "Ladino" which is like Yiddish (a mixture of German and Hebrew) except it is with Spanish and Hebrew. It's a dying language and only about 200 people in the world still speak it.

But wow, I'm super impressed with how much you know and how many places you've lived!
