Descripción

my wife and I are full time travelers since we retired in 2019. We sold our home, furnishings and car, and hit the road even though our families thought we are crazy. We love meeting new people, experiencing new cultures but most of all trying new foods :) We occasionally get feeling like we should go back to our jobs, because we just don't think of ourselves as 'old'. We think this may give us a purpose again a month or 2 at a time, when we choose to. Also we try to live on a modest budget, so this would let us try a few countries that might otherwise be a bit out of our budget. We have traveled fairly extensively, but as vacationers a week or 2 at a time, but for the last 2 years we are trying to stay at least a month in each city but we prefer 3 months to really get to know the people and place.

Que habilidades tienes?

Janice is a retired nurse, with many years working in trauma, orthopedics and surgery. She honed her administrative skills in the last few years. I kind of had 3 different careers about 13 years each. 1st as a project manager type, then I bought a small motel, restaurant, retail, boat rental place on a fresh water lake that emphasized fishing, and lastly went to nursing school in my 50's. I practiced as a wound care nurse for about 9 years, then i was allowed to retire again:) I have built a 2700 square foot house, rehabbed and remodeled 7 or 8 others in my spare time, including electrical and plumbing. We both share a passion for cooking, although I seem to be Janice's prep cook these days! We very much miss having a vegetable garden, pets and our grandchildren. But we do love to travel!

I would like to continue learning Spanish. Janice would like a refresher on French, she grew up in Montreal, but hasn't used it much since.

We find ourselves playing cards about every other day as we take the late afternoon to relax. Most days Janice does some stretching and strengthening exercises. I like to swim and exercise in the water whenever possible. As much as we fight it we are getting older and my old joints just won't do everything they used to. I try to find ways to do what ever i want to get done, but seldom kneel down these days! Unless there is a crane nearby to get me up:) haha or LOL
