“Never for me the lowered banner, never the last endeavour”
With this phrase from Sir Ernest Shackleton, I set off from Ushuaia to Falklands, South Georgia, Elephant Island, Orkney island, Antarctica and the South Shetland Islands. An expedition to the little-visited far south of our planet,the seventh continent.
“COSTA RICA – YOU ARE IN HEAVEN”
Costa Rica has been on my bucket list of countries I want to visit for some time. Jungle, many endemic birds, swimming with dolphins, a pristine green oasis in Central America. Only the last days of my trip i get a good picture of Costa Rica, PURA VIDA. I wrote this blog at the very last minute.

Madagascar, the forgotten continent!
Jozef Verbruggen: ‘Arriving in Tana immediately creeps up on the idea, I want to explore this immense island. I followed the R7 route. For an obvious reason. Madagascar, 590,000 km2 is too immense to visit at once. Some areas have hardly any roads or have very bad roads. The R7 gives a good impression to landscapes/people and animals/birds. It is, as it were, the average dealer of the many regions that one can visit. Above all, make time to leave the R7 and get off the beaten track. Then you will experience an even more authentic Madagascar, where time has stood still.’
