The scientist (Dr.) grew up in a village upon the North Sea. The bestselling author of books has written for magazines since 1982, too. After 28 yrs of martial arts and applied philosophy, he lives and thinks extremely and describes himself as a radical realist of the outdoor scene. He is a survival specialist of a different kind. For him, traveling does not consist of start and destination, but the between. Only a few adventurers can incorporate science and philosophy into the texts like him.
