On the Danube
I was always attracted to large bodies of water, sailing, boats and ships. I dreamed about becoming a radio officer on one of the big river and seagoing vessels some day. It didn't happen, but I managed to get work on the Danube as a deck hand first then advanced to be the engine operator, finally got a license as a skipper on ferries up to twenty tons. This was going on for only a couple of years and I had a lot of fun. Especially in the summer months when we could get free rides up the river and jumped into the water from the boats...
