A native Californian, I live in a cottage on the Delta. My hobby is traveling the world by freighter. I've made several crossings to Europe, and voyages to South America, Australia and New Zealand. One of my favorite trips was on a "tramp". There is no itenerary, so you never know where you're going or when you'll get there. Two years ago I went around the world on a French freighter, and we were attacked by pirates, but that's another story.
