About Me

Hello and thanks for stopping by.

I'm Keith an American expat. I moved to Amsterdam in 2000 and called it home until 2015. I started this blog in May of 2007 when I stopped working for 2 years and traveled mostly in Asia. I returned to work in Amsterdam in May of 2009. I worked for 4 years and stopped again for another travel break in 2013 at the age of 50. This time stopping work turned into retirement and I traveled slowly for over 7 years visiting many wonderful places but not blogging for much of it. Near the end of 2019 I decided it was time for having a place to call home again. I applied for and received a retirement visa and in 2020 I went to Thailand which I plan to call home for the foreseeable future.

The name of my blog is "Beer for Me" in Dutch and I consider myself a drunk with a traveling problem. I am not much of a writer or a photographer but when I drink enough beer I think I can do both.


This short slide show is about all you need to know about me. I like Beer.



Please drop a comment, I would love to know who is reading my travel stories.
