Seafarer From the Past

Ex. Seafarer As a former seafarer, I have been to most countries that have a harbour, but I have not been to Nepal or Tibet and I have never wished to meet the great Lama a man wearing handmade boots. Once in Japan I went to the movie and heard John Wayne speaking Japanese, I laughed out loud and was politely asked to leave. There was a time when I thought of settling in Costa Rica but it didn’t work out a love story gone awry; no not so it was too far from Europe and there was much more to see. I lived in the industrial belt of North/west of England for a time and never got used to the social life of pubs, where it appeared to me people took pride of being ignorant. I live in Portugal now, we sometimes drive to the coast and ogle the tourists who pay too much for everything.
