Journey and Work Experience

I left Canada in 1953 to work for the Red Cross in the Far East for the Canadian Forces in Korea and Japan.

After my tour of duty, I went to Australia, where I worked and hitchhiked to the Outback.

On my way to South Africa, I visited the Dutch West Indies, Borneo, Thailand, Singapore, Burma, and India.

I spent two months traveling by bus and train in India, three weeks of which were in Kashmir.

Once I arrived in Africa, I worked in Durban and hitchhiked around South Africa and neighboring countries.

I left for England in 1958 and returned home to Quebec City in the fall of that year.
