You don't need to be mad to be a seafarer, but it certainly helps. However, each and every seafarer is mad in his own way. Aron Baretic - ABe's choice of profession was deeply and irreversibly influenced by listening to the sea tales told by his grandfather and father, both seasoned seafarers of many years. Just as much as living surrounded by their kind. Considering himself as much a storyteller as a writer, his autobiographic sea tales are written without restrain or embellishment. Through tales is shown a life of an average seafarer, living and facing same life challenges like any of thousands of equals regardless of origin. Through Aron's tales you will travel the world's seas and meet different people of different nationalities, cultures, religions and customs. The world so very different from yours.
