I am the father of 4 children, recently retired after a long career serving teaching and schools. I currently live alone and work on two projects. The first concerns the making of films. The second project concerns a new trip along the Baltic that I will do during spring 2025.
I am very interested in current affairs, the progress of the world and the destiny of humanity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During my trip around the Baltic last year, I tried to be able to meet the people who live in the regions I passed through. I looked forward to being able to exchange, understand and discover everyone's lifestyles and culture. As it was a solo travel project, I also thank it was essential to find time for conviviality.
Now after this travel, I’m pleased to host people and to share our experiences.
