My name is Michael. My wife and are from the USA and have 5 children. We recently moved from Atenas, Costa Rica to Chapala, Mexico.
We are Christian believers, but we are not officially missionaries.
Michael is a former US Air Force pilot, and teaches English for Aviation to foreign pilots & air traffic controllers.
Our work on the internet allows us the freedom to live almost anywhere. We are bilingual Spanish/English.
Michael is looking for opportunities to teach English for Aviation in Spain, Italy, or Turkey but is open to opportunities in just about any country.
