Peter J Burns
Biographical Info:
Peter J Burns hoped to land a teaching gig in Latin America after graduation. Somehow he ended up teaching in Thailand. His one-year plan quickly turned into three. He has enjoyed it immensely, without regret. Teaching here has its unexpected challenges and rewards. He takes advantage of every possible weekend and holiday to travel the ever-diverse Thailand. He has traveled extensively within Thai borders and has, on occasion, crossed into other Southeast Asian countries, to compare the cultures and sample the spices. He has traveled through many other countries but finds Southeast Asia to be the most intriguing, exotic, and welcoming region he has experienced thus far.
