One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The world is frightening beautiful:
** One month travelling Afghanistan september 2009, by far the most exciting and interesting country in the world. ** Six months travelling Indonesia, the most beautiful country on earth. ** Two months hiking alone in the Karakoram in Pakistan. ** Ten days hiking alone in West-Papua to villages living in the stone age. ** One day in the prison in Iran, tied up, blindfolded, not a joke. ** Passed the house of bin laden at 300 meters, was not aware.** Hitchhiking about 150.000 kilometers worldwide. ** Experiencing unconditional hospitality worldwide.
I will explain you when you are here.
Teach, Learn, Share
