About me

I have traveled to India, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam and lived in Vietnam and I am married to a Vietnamese woman and we have lived in Vietnam. I love to cycle and be outdoors with nature. There are so many things in life that happen that you can not explain and this is the wonder of life.
