ABOUT ME

Hi.
I have British/irish and Belgium nationality. I travelled quiet a lot as a young man. 1983-1985 spent these years travelling around western europe, with a two month trip to the US thrown in.
In October 1985 set off on a cycling trip from Buenos Aires (Argentina) to Montreal (Canada) 20 months and more than 22,000 KM.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live.
