My name is Robin Pearson. I live and work in Singapore. My hometown is Adelaide, South Australia but I have family living in the UK and in Sydney, Australia.
Asia has been a major part of my life now for over 20 years. My major at college was Chinese. I spent 18 months of my life living and studying in China, an experience that shaped and changed the course of my life in so many different ways.
I also spent a year in Japan as a JET. Being a teacher, I was fortunate to be given a special role working with teachers of English in Japan , focusing on best practices in teaching English in Japanese local schools. Yes, I am a teacher. A profession that in many ways chose me rather than the other way around. It has, however, shaped and moulded me in many positive ways. Teaching is a craft.
Singapore is my second home after Australia. I have now lived here for well over ten years and have watched Singapore change dramatically over that time.
My blog is growing as I change as a person. I am discovering writing is an art and whilst my blog currently has a limited following, I hope that will change over time. Inspiration is born out of a passion for life. To have that in these busy times means having time out to reflect on life, its meaning and where we are all heading in the scheme of things.
I hope whoever reads my blog is inspired in some small way. Some posts will be merely informative. Others perhaps a little deeper.
