Welcome to the Music page

Music is one of those underappreciated courses in a school curriculum. Often it is the domain of a local hire, i.e. an underpaid woman who has a spouse working in the country in the private sector. But, music can be one of the selling points of a school. As a performance art, it gives a school a public face and a chance for parents to actually see their children doing something that they study. I mean, how many parents want to come spend an hour watching their child do long division or solve quadratic equations. Music education can also be used to for cross-cultural education in ways that many other subject areas cannot. I will begin working on developing music links here although to be honest, I am having trouble finding good ones. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The Practicalities of Moving to Bali: A Primer for Life in the Tropics

My eBook on expat life in Bali is now available for purchase. Please click on the link to learn more about this book that you'll want to read if you plan on moving to Bali. Here's what a reader said about this book:

"Bruce Pohlman's e-book has already been a godsend to my wife Elsha and me. He writes in an inviting and colorful way. He covers the GENERAL: culture shock, the wonders and risks of  living overseas, to the SPECIFIC - costs of living, housing, medical issues, visas, employment. He even includes much PERSONAL info: what expats are like, why he left a job in San Francisco and ended up in Bali, personal and family relationships. And much more; anything you might want to know is in his e-book, with links to helpful websites throughout. We've used it to guide us countless times; it's like having a trusted uncle who's an expert.This book should become a classic about Bali."
