Background
I came from the Netherlands to Israel in 1985 as a student of agriculture. I studied nabatean runoff systems at the Avdat research farm of Prof. Michael Evenari. Here I met my wife and together we have four children. I worked at the Jacob Blaustein Institute of Desert Research in Sde Boqer at the Department of Ecology for a number of years, focussing on big mammels like ibexes and onagers which is a wild type of horse. Subsequently, I acquired a tourist guide license of the Israeli Ministry of Tourism in 1991 after a two year study. Since then I have been guiding numerous tours through Israel. My destination is the wilderness of the Negev Desert.
