“Wer nichts riskiert, kann nicht einmal scheitern.”
— Reinhold Messner


Past 30 years I’ve done about 25 expeditions and plenty of less extreme bike and climbing tours. From easy hiking and biking in the Ardennes to severe climbing and trekking in the European Alps and North Africa. From extreme ski and bike expeditions mid winter in Scandinavia, Iceland and Canada, to climbing expeditions in the Andes, Pamir and Himalaya.

Travel stories

I wrote short and full stories about the travels and expeditions we did. The full travel stories are in Dutch only, but recently I translated a few short stories into English, in which I describe some of my solo climbs and bike rides.
