Born & raised in Brooklyn, NY. I moved to the SF Bay area in 1978. Prior to leaving NYC, I worked as a portrait photographer.

I met Hiroko in 1983 & we married in 84. In 2018, we retired & moved to Costa Rica. In 2024, we moved to Atami, Japan.
Adios

Sad, but profoundly true. I left the country of my birth, the country whose Navy I served in during the Vietnam Era, the country my father enlisted in the US Army to fight the Nazis that seem to be running the US into the ground. I will never set foot on US soil again.

The only reason DHS is taking action against the agent is because the abuse is documented.

It took me finding my perfect partner to help me recover and become whole again.

I live in one of those hillside buildings overlooking the Pacific Ocean and the Atami harbor.

I left NYC 2 years after my 26 year old wife of 5 years just fell over dead one morning from a stroke. They blamed a combination of cigarettes and birth control pills. I had a successful career as a professional photographer that collapsed as I descended into drug and alcohol abuse.

Great affordable Healthcare and awesome food here on the Pacific Coast of the Izu Peninsula.

BTW- I was born and raised in NYC.

All our friends thought we were crazy for moving to a new country (CR) at 72 & 69.

We love adventures and exploring other cultures.

Thanks for the memory. I lived in Marin for over 45 years. I met and married my soul mate there 41 years ago.
