Iris Todd-Lewis

Postcards from Panama (eBook, ePUB)

A Year of Culture Shock and Adaptation

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This is Iriss second book. Her first, Panama? Why Panama?, described the lengthy process she and Chris endured as they prepared to move to Panama upon retirement, the roller coaster of emotion involved, and the dos and donts of how to achieve this. Iris now picks up the thread and, with actually living in Panama, describes their first year of adaptation to the language and culture of a foreign country. At times funny, sometimes poignant, often perplexing, daily life is a cacophony of change in expectations. Herein lies the tale of one couple and their initial year in Panama!

Autorenporträt

Retirement gave Iris the opportunity to indulge a cherished wish-to write! Her professional life encompassed bank clerking, nursing, supervising and management, teaching and counseling, time as a university professor, and lastly several years as a realtor-an olio of experience and interaction with people from all walks of life. Putting this array of knowledge to use became a new cause, thus the writing. Iris is a wife, mother, stepmother (not the wicked kind!), grandmother, lover of cats (and dogs!), happy to meet new folks, delighted to have new experiences, to listen, and to mentor. She considers herself a lifelong learner. Some of her acquired wisdom is now being recorded in her books and shared in her weekly blog www.postcardsfrompanama.net.
