Lonely Planet Collection Update
On 6 December 2015 from Reuver, Netherlands | comments closedAfter 6 years, it is time to update my Lonely Planet Collection. I am only listing the physical books below, as I also started to get a little collection of Lonely Planet e-books in PDF format. Especially for last-minute trips (when there is not enough time to order the physical book), trips to only a small part of a country (where a chapter in PDF format is much more cost effective than ordering the whole book) or minimum luggage trips (e.g. hiking in Nepal where the book adds weight and I can read the e-book on mobile/tablet/e-reader anyways). In case you need to borrow one, you know where to find me.

Website Update 2009
On 22 July 2009 from Prague, Czech Republic | comments closedYou may have noticed few website updates lately, which is entirely due to the fact that I am using my website primarily as my travel blog and photo gallery. And as I only blog on trips longer than 1 week, there have been no blog updates. There has not been a lack of shorter trips though, so not to worry 😉
My website is currently using the following open-source scripts [updated 22 August 2009 & 20 December 2009]:
- WordPress
2.8.22.8.42.9 - Gallery
2.32.3.1 - WPG2 3.0.7
- Regulus 2.3 (WordPress theme)
- Gallery 2 Google Maps Plugin 0.5.8
The Ultimate Car
On 13 July 2008 from Rotterdam, Netherlands | comments closedDoes anybody have 99.000 euro (excl. VAT) for me?
The Tesla Roadster is finally coming to Europe!
This is _the_ ultimate car: fast (0-100 km/h in 3,9 s), environmentally friendly (electric engine, no CO2 emissions), and it’s a roadster (more driving fun). The future of automobiles is here.
I want one.
