CURRENT MISSION

I love life. So many good things in life, several things on my list that i still want to do. Love travelling, would like to live in some other countries for some time, learn foreign languages and may be pass the USMLE (United States Medical Licensing Exam

ABOUT ME

I am 60 and still going on strong. I am from India originally, my wife is native Dutch. We've been together for some 35+ years and have four kids (all out of house) and two grand children. Did all kinds of jobs (truck driving, taxi driving, Secretary and owned a health food shop). Then at age 41 I went to medical school and graduated in 1993. I've been working as a medical doctor ever since. After turning 60 I cut down a great deal in my work, I only work some weekends. Furthermore I do somem medical repatriation, some hospital work (emergency ward) and some forensic medical work. Went as a ship's doctor several times on a expedition cruise to Greenland, Antarctic, North Pole and Iceland etc. Have a pilot license and love to fly (only its very expensive).

PHILOSOPHY

I like life. Most people in this world are good people.But also there is so much suffering in this world and I am very happy I can share some grief with others while helping them in as much as I can. Life (age) wisdom and work experience are good parameters and very useful in helping/sharing with people where necessary and it gives me satisfaction.
