Ewa Wasilewska has more than 40 years of experience as a university professor working on different historical and cultural aspects of ancient and modern Middle East and Central Asia. Her formal education includes Master's degrees in Middle Eastern studies, archaeology, and history, and a Doctorate in anthropology. And...she is a SENIOR now! While still continuing her academic research, Ewa has challenged herself to become a Realtor (on a bet she won), adding more letters/titles to her name: CIPS, ABR, SRS, SRES, RENE, PSA, HFR, e-PRO, SFR. Ewa's unique perspective and a deep understanding of human behavior and culture have helped make her successful and she opened her own company, focusing on education in real estate.

She is currently working on a book entitled, "Anthropology of Real Estate," as well as a few other projects started years ago, such as "The Forgotten Indiana Jones: Prof. Edgar J. Banks". Ewa is the author of two books, "Creation Stories of the Middle East," and "Anthropology of Humor and Laughter" as well as of many articles for both academic and general interest audiences. Her fieldwork includes numerous countries in the Middle East and Central Asia; China; and Malta. Ewa's motto as a senior is: Never be bored, nor boring. RIDEO ERGO SUM... I laugh therefore I exist!
