Descrição
Hello. I am a retired sheep farmer and carpenter. I have a lot of free time now and I would like to take the opportunity to work, meet and help people in need. I spent 15 years in my younger days in Canada and the English Caribbean Islands. I am fluent in English, French of course and have been studying Dutch for the last few years. Lately I have spent quite a bit of time in the Netherlands and would like to help someone. My companion Anne Marie is a retired accountant. She likes traveling, meeting people and is quite helpful with others. She is part of association helping school children in Africa. Her work is managing the funds to provide financing for schooling and meals at the canteen at lunch time.
