About this blog

Plodding through the heartlands of human civilisation, I conquer fortresses in Rajastan, hunt tigers, dip a finger in the Ganges, paddle the backwaters of Kerala, wander through the majestic Himalayas, visit Kathmandu valley, cross Tibet in a jeep, walk across The Wall, teach children basic English in southern China, attend a wedding in Hong Kong, and motorcycle to ethnic villages in Vietnam. See www.jeroenvm.dds.nl for other details of the trip.
