About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Wreally, wreally great awsome BIKE trip around the mediterranean sea! Start: 1 April 2009

ABOUT ME

Well, i guess im a modest guy. Got it my head that i dont want to spent ALL my time in the achievement to a higher carreer function..so i thought im gonna make a big trip around the big pool. Heard of this project by a Dutch television program, and got me hooked instantly.
I hope this is something that this gets people interested in sharing. Thinking more about together-ness and cooperative thinking in stead of induvidualism. theres been way too much of that all ready..:)

And so, to be short; not only id like to be welcomed by people on journey im about to make in april 2009, but my doors also open for those who are interested.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bike trip in Laos. An entire elementary school running empty because a white dude came by on a motorcycle

Teach, Learn, Share

well, i know some stuff about some stuff. I guess its entirely about the participent what there is to be learned..

Im seeking more interaction about culture other then im familiar with in Holland. Tensions are rising due to individualism and social influences. Muslim communities and the Dutch society seem to grow a gap. And all everyone hears and sees of one another (domestic and worldwide)is thru television and radio. im not willing to accept that everything is as dark as is presented in media.
So id like to go and travel in those countrys and speak to those of whom we have grown fearful of to get a better understanding of the real situation and of that back in Holland.
