I give my 3 finger salute for all that are brave enough to stand up against the Burmese Army, and all that suffer because of their brutal regime. Even on a big distance we can support them by urging our governments to act. Please help out: Email EU governments and ask them to impose targeted sanctions … Continue reading Thinking of you..

Bye bye France At arrival you have 2 days to get to your quarantine spot. We took the ferry from Caen to … Continue reading Countdown!
Living the good life
The first French words me and my brother learned by heart on our holidays in France were: 'bonjour, un baguette, S'il vous plait'. Me and my brother would walk to the boulangerie with rucksacks that had the same size as our bodies, and enough Francs to buy baguettes and croissants or pain au chocolat if … Continue reading Living the good life
From complete idiots to real tourists
We cycled off the Greek ferry into the old centre of Ancona in Italy and there it stood blocking our way: a super fancy Maserati funeral car! There are no limits when it comes to style!

Since yesterday night the whole of Greece is in a lock down to prevent the Corona virus from spreading too fast. No musea, no cinema, no theatres, no schools, … Continue reading Difficult times
