El escudo de Concepción

I was born and raised in Christchurch, New Zealand but I have been living in Concepción, Chile since 1995. I'm married to a Chilean and I teach English at a local university.

My main purpose in Wikipedia is to create and enhance Chilean related articles within the English wiki while also creating and enhancing New Zealand related articles within the Spanish wikipedia.

I'm currently having a go at learning Esperanto online. So far, so good. You can find my feeble attempts here
