¡SALUDOS! (No. 2)

HELLO GLIMPSERS!!!

My name is Pam Johnson and I will be one of your two Global Glimpse leaders traveling to Jarabacoa this summer! I am so excited to get to meet all of you in person at O’Hare Airport (Terminal 1 at 12:30 on Monday, 6/24!).

A little about me: I am a Dean at Pritzker College Prep on the city’s northwest side. I have been in education almost as long as most of you have been alive (yikes I’m old!). This is my third Global Glimpse Trip. Previously I have traveled to Nicaragua and Ecuador with Global Glimpse so clearly, I love Global Glimpse! I also just love traveling! In addition to my GG trips, I have had the incredible opportunity to travel to Australia, Mexico, Morocco, Turkey, and have even lived in the UK for 4 years, which allowed me to travel around A LOT of Europe. While in the UK I met my now husband and we now live in Park Ridge with our two kids, Lincoln (age 4) and Jackie Lou (age 1.5).

I can’t wait to meet all of you and learn from you!

This is a great intro Pam! I’ve known you for quite some time and didn’t realize you had lived in the UK for 4 years, pretty cool. Thanks for leading your 3rd GG trip with us to your 3rd GG country. It was also really neat that you allowed us to meet Lincoln and Jackie Lou!
