Eventually I moved to San Francisco to teach at San Francisco State University . After close to 20 years I am still fascinated with the Bay Area and all its opportunities. I often go to Tahoe and in the winter I usually manage to make it to the X-Country trails a dozen times. In the summer I enjoy the biking and the hiking. Six years ago I moved to Silverado.
Napa Valley is an interesting area.
It reminds me a lot of the Loire Valley where I spent many years and where some of my family made wine. I also belong to the Napa Valley Athletic Club where I regularly work out. As soon as the semester is over I will attend the Tae Bo and Spin classes again. For five years I have also been a director of my home association. When I am not involved in teaching, in research, in commuting, and in all the activities above I love reading, watching movies, listening to music and adding more flowers to my garden.
