Hi I am Derek.

Been traveling and living in many countries from early age when my parents left Holland for a life in Africa. Brought up in Swaziland and South Africa. Finished schooling in UK and USA. Then lived in 5 years in USA, 4 years in Japan and Singapore - 7 years. With periods inbetween in France and the UK. My big travel trips have been by car with my dogs across the USA in a Jeep, and a VW Golf from Mozambique to Namibia acroos Zimbabwe and Botswana. My latest trip in 2016 is overland from Singapore to Holland with no taxi and no aeroplane.

I live in Holland and have a daughter of 4 years old.
