I was in the mood to quit teaching and travel the world permanently. I was looking through my bookmarked posts and stumbled across this post I wrote years ago when I curated the accounted. I’ve changed my mind. I’ll stay in teaching for a bit longer. For now.
On my last day as curator I want to share some of the success from my career. Being Asian and female, working in a predominantly white British school, I anticipated some misconceptions about the culture I grew up in and how my lifestyle would differ from theirs.

If you want to see RACISM. Read this thread. There’s sadly several like this. His contribution, character & achievements - are truly unparalleled. Recognised by successive Govs, Monarchs for his efforts. Yet, the hate focuses on his faith & colour. We stand with you @MuftiPatel

I’m travelling around South America currently. I’m continuously being referred to as “The Brit”. Or get the odd “You’re English?”. No one sees the colour of my skin and refers to me as “The Asian” or even asks the secondary question about my heritage. It’s an odd feeling.

Sorry I’ve been quiet. My summer plans included this place among many more. Can you guess where I am?

Christmas in NYC. I didn’t feel like posting when I got back. This trip was definitely one of my favourites.

Apparently the shoes are not appropriate for the mountains of Petra but my trainers didn’t match my outfit…
