Abstract
We discuss a construction of a wormhole with the following properties: the wormhole connects to the same asymptotic region and is one-way tr aversable i.e. there exist timelike curves that start and end in the s ame asymptotic region and go through the wormhole. Moreover it is poss ible to satisfy the energy conditions. From any point in the asymptoti c region there exist closed timelike curves.
