About this blog

What a "trip"! Moving my ass to Kunming, China to live there and work as a Foreign Expert at Yunnan University. Of course I did an awful lot of traveling in China and SEA while I was there. After 14 months the contract ended and I and my girlfriend moved back to Holland. But first we visited her family and other cool places in the US during a massive road trip! West Coast and Route 66, here I come!!!

I loved every part of it!!!
