CURRENT MISSION

Trying to make myself and others happy.

ABOUT ME

Basicly I'm a traveller. The last few years I make many trips to a lot of Asian countries. In the winter I am always in Asia, in the summer in Holland. The last 4 years I live in Vietnam most of the year. My body is old, my mind is very young. I have two children, a daughter (30) who has a master in law, and a son (31) who is working as a economist at a big American company. I'm bored by old-fashioned bourgois-people and I like creative exploring travellers with an open mind for the surrounding world. I really dislike people who think they have the right to judge other people who are different from the mainstream.

PHILOSOPHY

You get what you give...

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

My motortrip through the warzone of Serbia, Bosnia/Herzogowina, Croatia and Kosovo. What a destruction!
But also: the warm shower of friendlyness in Asia.
