About Chloé Skye Weiser,
Resident Wordsmith,
Writer, Expat Traveler
I'm in it for the story.
I started watching Sesame Street as a newborn and was "reading" waterproof books in the bath
as a toddler. I got called into the principal's office at 6 years old
because of my poem about springtime, called "Flower Power."
The one everyone came to for help with editing their high school essays? Yep, I was that English nerd.
Since I started going to NYC open mics, I've performed on stage 30+ times,
and then I moved to Czech Republic to teach as part of the Fulbright Program.
Between 2010-2018, I taught over 1,000 students across the USA, Czech Republic, and Israel.
I've worked with 100+ businesses to develop their brand messaging.
As a Language & Culture Professional, I've been capturing multicultural audiences
by written and spoken word for as long as I can remember (and professionally, 9 years and counting).
What's the story behind Chlohemian?
As an avid traveler passionate about the intersection between culture and language,
I have lived in the USA, Israel, Czech Republic, and Denmark,
and have achieved intermediate Hebrew (!היי) and advanced Czech (zdravím!).
So far, I've visited 30 countries (and I don't just count airports!).
I record my travel adventures and language faux pas on Chlohemian, my travel blog.
The ability to live and work with a diverse range of people is a huge gift that has taught me
the close connection between language and culture personally.
Chlohemian has garnered 70.3K+ views with 34.1K+ unique visitors over 160 posts and counting.

6 Fun Facts
📚 #1. Bookworm
My favorite authors are Margaret Atwood, Ray Bradbury, and James Baldwin. I'm a big sci-fi and dystopian lit lover and will talk your ear off about Czech literature if given the chance.
🌍 #2. World Traveler
Cultivating strong communication and cultural understanding are my #1 priorities. Greece, Romania, and South Korea are next up on my digital nomad list!
🎤 #3. Music Maker
I play the ukulele because my hands are too small to play the guitar. You can also find me singing Ariana Grande and performing spoken word poetry.
🐝 #4. Spelling Bee Champion
The high started in 3rd grade when I won with the word "skeleton." In 7th grade, I lost on "mendicant" at the regional level. I'm still seeking vengeance.
🌳 #5. Treehugger
I am a huge sustainability enthusiast. (See my work for Earth 911 here.) If #4 wasn't nerdy enough, I won an award in high school for rescuing PET bottles from the trash and recycling them.
👂 #6. Dangly Earring Collector
I own 100+ pairs of earrings alone. It's not a stretch to say they also make me a good listener (cough pun cough). I'll be wearing my favorite pair while writing your copy!
