I am an active retired dentist who has traveled extensively in the United States, Europe, Mexico and South America. I was stationed in France for 2 years in the Army Dental Corps. My wife and I owned a second home in Southern France for 30 years. I speak adequate French and Spanish. My knowledge of Asia and Africa is minimal. We never worked with a travel agent in planning our trips and I do have experience with that. I taught at the UCLA Dental School for 10 years and was a CASA(Court Appointed Child Advocate for Foster Children)for 4 years.
