Come with!

In 2021 I travel to Borneo with Live the Journey. With rainforests older than the Amazon, and home to nose monkeys and orangutans, it is one of the most biodiverse areas on earth.

It’s cramped, hot and wet – soaking wet – because the island receives more than 2,000 mm of rain a year.

Every morning – every day – one is overwhelmed by the strangeness of everything around you.

Butterflies as big as birds, more than 2,000 species of orchids and super-rare birds like the “Frogmouth”.

On the Kinabatagan River we sail upstream, between overhanging vegetation with snakes, nose monkeys, fireflies and bearded pigs.

Borneo is a must on the life dream list of all travelers, as the rainforests are quickly being replaced by palm oil plantations.

Come along and experience one of the natural wonders of our planet.

HERINNERINGE

Vergete resepte – nes jou ouma dit sou maak!

Almal het ‘n ouma of ma wat ‘n dis kon gaarmaak en optower – en wat ons nooit meer vandag maak nie – maar wat ons vir altyd sal onthou.

Hoe ons aardsheid ons wyse bepaal

Ek het in trane uitgebars, want in my geil verbeelding het daar ’n dooie hondjie gelê in elke bos riete, biesies en ruigte…

Beleef die natuur en die reukruim met Dave

Dave reël gereeld uitstappies met groepe wat belangstel om hul eie wilde sampioene te versamel asook praatjies oor parfuum.
