I just returned from a trip to Norway. I enjoyed Norway. I will travel to Norway again. I retired recently. I am not very interested in painting. I am married. I like barbecue food. I do not like exotic foods. I have neighbors. I like to eat meat.
I traveled the world on my yacht recently. I traveled in the Mediterranean. I traveled to Spain. I love painting. I am not married. I have about 23 cats. I dislike the taste of fish. I have neighbors. I have a brother.
Did you find that your travels inspired your paintings? Yes they did. When I went to Spain I was inspired by the culture so I started painting with more green and red colors and the people there were very friendly.  Where did you visit when you travelled the world? That experience sounds facinating! So far most of Europe and Africa. I love meeting new people and their cultures it's so interesting to me. My next places to visit is Asia and Australia.  Do you have a favorite country or city that you have visited so far? Yeah Italy was my favorite so far. The food was amazing and Rome was incredible to see in person. Are you planning to travel anywhere too? I really would like to go back to Norway and visit Sweden as well. Who is caring for your cats when you are traveling? I have a neighbor who doesn't mind looking after them. The cats are mostly outdoor types so he doesn't mind.  Yeah, that does make things easier. How long did it take you to accumulate all of those cats? Well I used to work at a rescue shelter and I loved taking home cats that no one wanted. Every month or so they will contact me to see if I'll take another and I can never say no.   That is great of you to do. It seems like there are always so many rescue cats and not enough houses for them. Exactly. And the problem is so many people want specific breeds that there are so many animals in need of homes.
