My Inspiration
 Check out the videos clips that inspired me over the past years: Videos about aid work and advocacy. |
 Music always was a main source of inspiration for me. This is a list of my all time favourites. |
 Here is a selection of my favourite books, or browse through my library. I frequently comment on books I read. |
 Travelling makes me wiser. All the pictures I collect along the Road of Life, I store in my Flickr library. |
 I collect, scan, read, browse, absorb, digest and discuss news topics to learn, understand and broaden my views. |
About Me
 Peter. Flemish, European, aid worker, expeditioner, sailor, traveller, husband, father, friend, nutcase. Not necessarily in that order. |
