hi Mels,
I come from london and was given this name when i ordained with amida. My family are english though there is some mix of French and spanish back in history. I am back living in london in our little London centre after 25 years in other countries. the last 10 as a nun with amida have taken me to India, Zambia, bosnia and France as well as different places in the UK. I have been teaching basic buddhism in each place as well as helping practically.
I am interested in where you live and its history and the work you do...
Many good wishes

Dear Mels,
i am at last getting a little time to explore ning to talk to a few new members and you profile caught my eye. The nearest i have been to your part of the world is India where I started the Delhi project taking volunteers to teach english as a foreign language to the very poor 5 years ago. Now we mostly have volunteers from Delhi and in a small way we get into the very poor areas. We live with the people and have a lot of fun too as they teach us...
I am now based in London, running retreats and linking up with Both buddhists networks and the local Interfaith community for amida. i would be interested to know more of your work and life
Best wishes
