The Dutchman

Joined Atlas Obscura in 2016

I am a 74 yr old male. In 1954 at the age of 12 I emigrated with my family from the Netherlands to Canada. At age 19, I worked on cargo ships (merchant marine) for three yrs. This released my travel bug. To date, my wife of 50 yrs and I have traveled to the 4 corners of the earth, having been to 78 countries so far, and yearning for more (which will happen).
