Update, June 2021: In Thailand for the last year and 15 months away from the USA.

It seems that I'm not living the usual life... taking the road less traveled.

So after university I worked hard but then retired about 20 years ago. Since then I've been enjoying life, traveling to see the world. I feel very lucky and thankful for this life I have.

I really enjoy experiencing new cultures. My dream was to visit every country in the world but it seems that's not going to happen. Maybe I'll make it to half of them though! :)

Countries I've visited so far:

If you've read this far, please send me a message, if only to say hi!  :) Who knows, maybe we'll end up friends.

I'd like to find someone adventurous & open-minded.
