As an adult, she worked in Kyoto, Japan, where she taught English as a Foreign Language at Doshisha Girls’ Junior and Senior High School (1989-1991). She has traveled extensively in Europe and Asia, and has a passion for languages, having studied – to varying degrees of proficiency – German, Dutch, French, Russian, Spanish, Japanese, and Mandarin.
