I love to be outdoors, be it for hiking, climbing, gardening or playing with my children. I also love to travel and always had this weakness for knowing other countries, their different cultures, people and landscapes since childhood (initiated by a book showing the natural wonders of this world in huge photos). With the success of the internet suddenly one could even have access to many people form other countries in an easy way, so i started to penpal back in 1993 due to that and some nice friendships developed from there on of which some exist until today. 8 years later finally i got to see some of my penapls in real for the first time, of whom one took me into the jungle, something i wanted to experience for very very long, another one into the beginning of the australian outback. Taking into regard that another passion of mine is photography, my stories are usually accompanied by photos. So isn't that a good base and incentive to start writing me?
