He studied and taught Dutch, alternating work with long travels on a budget, eager for experiences, nature and solitude.
Roaming alone or with a dear one, he favoured Himalayan and Andes regions, and within Europe empty areas like Ireland’s. A Buddhist since the 1970s, he walked the 88-temple pilgrimage of Shikoku.
Admiration and revulsion take turns in his links with mankind; fondness and independency do so in love.
All along he wrote texts; some Dutch poems were published.
This collection of English poetry is part of his spätlese efforts.voir moins
