About me - Andrew Coln

About me

Originally from Washington, D.C. , I have been living in Cancun, Mexico for the last 17 years. I spent several of my younger years as a television and radio broadcaster, then worked in the restaurant business for a few more years, which brought me to Cancun. At present I write, paint, and sell timeshare vacations in the Cancun market. I also work as an English/Spanish teacher, translator, writer and voiceover artist. In my spare time I sleep.

I hope you enjoy the words I write, and I welcome comments and suggestions.

cheers from the C U N...

I had just graduated from high school, and a fairly large and dangerous group of us seniors were engaging in what would later be remembered in the purple and white annals as the Great Barbasol War of 1984, a clash of titans responsible for important changes in the school's administrative and conduct codes. We all remember the last day of our senior year, right? Well, mine was a day of cleaning out lockers, saying...
