About Me

At the momemt I'm on a roadtrip with my girlfriend Tanja and our beloved Volvo 850 "Herman". We went from the Netherlands to Hungary and from Croatia to Italy, we now landed in Spain. Our destination will be the ZNA festival in Portugal on the 18th (also my birthday)

ABOUT ME

I love to travel and have been all over the world, from south America to Asia and big parts of Europe. The reason for this is caused by my curiosity for the planet and the people all around us. The limitless adventures we can have and far regions to explore. I believe that before we can truly make peace on this planet. We need to understand that in spirit we are one but our daily choices make us very different from each other. And that's what makes us unique!
