About

The economy fell apart. Then we moved to Brighton. Disappointing- yes. Any regrets? No. I am unemployed and living here on a Tier 1 Visa while my partner is studying for a PhD at Sussex. We should be here for 3-4 years. I am interested in meeting Sussex people and any other souls that have a shared mission of getting to know the rest of the world better.
Interests: photography, nightlife, reading, kites, travel, , blogging, records, running, beagles

My expat journey

usaengland
Brighton, England

Since Nov 2008

Brighton, England

I have involved myself with volunteering at an umemployment agency as well as a historic preservation society. I am also training for a half-marathon this summer and putting some serious effort to promoting and developing my blog, mostly for fun and for practice.
I am looking for freelance/contract work in the IT sector, although I would consider permanent work with a great local firm.
The sea, the lovely people, the free spirit, the pubs.
There are hardly any jobs!

Detroit, USA

Nov 1974 - Nov 2008

Detroit, USA

I worked for a small marketing company for 10 years, with 2 of those years spent in Nashville, Tennessee.
Technical Project Manager. (Automotive, just like everyone in Detroit!)
I lived right in the city so I saw a much different side of things than most Metro Area residents. I loved the city's history, architecture, museums, and raw nature. There is a large community of people committed to moving the city forward and they are amazing. I have an amazing group of friends/family that live here- it was very tough to leave them.
Crime, reliance on auto industry (for work and for transportation), too conservative, hot/humid summers, long distance to raw natural beauty.
