For nomad writers and bloggers and wannabe’s , a category about the the practical side of blogging and/or writing while traveling. As a professional blogger I take you along my journey of experimenting, learning and gaining knowledge. If you cannot find the answer to your question here, please contact me.
During the last road trip I realized that the Yamaha SZ150 was just a little too small for my riding style. Sometimes when overtaking or going uphill, there was always that split second feel of: Am I going to make this? And how many times I tried to shift up being in fifth gear already I can not recall. So the search for a new bike started. Now in the Philippines, it is not a matter of going to any…
Did you know there is a YouTube Channel filled with One Minute Videos but also road movies? You can follow my trip from island to island in the Philippines, following the Philippine Nautical Highway and its side roads. So far I have travelled the island of Siquijor, Negros, Panay, Mindoro, Luzon, Leyte and Bohol Every island was an adventure and although many men say I should not drive a motorcycle in the Philippines. I manage pretty wel. I must say…
People often ask me, what I do for a living. Well, not much. I travel and write and making photos/videos. Does that pay the bills? Yes, it can pay bills. As a world citizen I have a nomadic lifestyle and with that comes the digital work. Among the things I do I found a way to make all those hundreds of photos create an income for me. I sell my travel photos. They are usable for many purposes but especially…
Many studies state that human beings need contact with other human beings. We need both the intellectual, social and sexual interactions with other human beings in order to blossom and grow. As a reclusive I can say: I’m only human. Occasionally I do need contact with human beings, as only to proof that I love my reclusive lifestyle. It is also said that people who live as recluses are those who are wounded, emotionally immature or suffer from some kind…

At the moment here it is rain season and heavy rains bother my view, my trip and my beach life, falling coconuts everywhere and floods and landslides. Crossing the horizon as my greatest challenge? Gosh, how about dark lonely nights, facing huge spiders all by myself and kill giant roaches? And what about…
Some of my followers may have seen me pop up on LinkedIn. I thought it might be useful. I used to love LinkedIn and connecting to people there, expanding my network and matching questions and people together, creating opportunities. So I thought after being away for many years: let’s give it a go. Profile made, and the suggested people started to show, and I realised how limited a platform as LinkedIn actually is. As if I only want to connect…
There are many articles on the internet that tell you why it is good to travel solo, like 10 reasons, 16 reasons etc. For me none of those articles make any sense. For instant: it is cheaper? No way, hotel rooms are paid for anyway and usually 2-p. bedrooms, so company can tag along in the same price. transportation costs? It depends, same as with food. If you travel on a motorbike like me, a passenger can join. And if…
