Hello everyone -
Trying to make new friends - but this internet does not make it easy as today I am one place, tomorrow, I will be another. Let me explain that I am 66, and retired from airlines, means that I am travelling a lot for free or almost free. But today this computer assumes that I live "here" in this province/state and city.
No...! I live in a suitcase, most of the time...
I am widower, and I miss my wife.
I was born in Brussels and educated there - This explain the few languages I can speak - I understand others. So I have a EU (Europe) passport. Oh, do not think I seek a "US Green Card" - I have a US Passport as I lived there 30 years, but would not want to live there again. I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina (a few weeks a year). I am often in Europe, or SE Asia, I love Brazil as well. My sports of interest are football (soccer) and polo (horses). I do not know anything about US sport teams, baseball or American football. I just know that the Lakers are the Los Angeles basketball team.
I love good food, good wines and a good cold glass of beer in summer. I am cultured and educated, be glad to talk ancient history or philosophy, religion or opera singers. After all, I have been in 105 (or 107...?) countries... Some places were only a few hours but some other locations, were assignments for a few months. So do not try to beat me with geography. I know the capital city, if they have a king or a republic, if they drive on the left, or the voltage of their electricity, and I prefer metric to imperial measures. To me 30º is warm...!
I try to meet new friends. I am conservative in my manners, I like old traditions, I offer flowers, open doors, I am against drugs and cannabis, and I do not need sport sex. Age does not matter, if you are young, I hope you are mature, and if about my age, I love to behave like a teenager at times.
Last but not least, I have a great sense of humour...
Everyone calls me by my nickname, "Skipper"...!
Glad to meet you.

After I post something, I can only see what I have posted, and what was posted before mine. Nothing after that? Is there a way for someone to send me a email explaining this?
