Lucas Dines

Lucas currently lives and works as an educator on the island of Jeju in South Korea with his beautiful wife and two amazing sons. He and his wife have lived all over the world, including the Republic of Macedonia, South Korea, China, and Kuwait.

Originally from Albuquerque, NM, Lucas first moved overseas after he finished his doctorate in clinical psychology from The George Washington University. In need of a change, he sold all of his belongings, packed up two bags, bought a one-way ticket to Macedonia, and moved there without a job. He settled in the city of Tetovo and ended up living there for a total of four years over two separate time periods, working as a university professor, grant writer, and secondary school principal. He learned Albanian and fell in love with the people, culture, and city.
