WITTEVEEN!!!!!!!!!!

Updated  september 2005
A page with links to Indian food, Indian religion, Indian railways,Kids pages ,software,
Restaurants in the Netherlands,  Rosmalen,  Heemstede, beer,food,  scouting, nonsensical web pages , cemeteries, 's Hertogenbosch and a lot more.  Some of the links are in Dutch.
 

First a little story about myself.
I was borne 50  years ago( some people wonder? with or without beard ? Without I think)  in the center of the Netherlands but moved  to Heemstede  where I grew up. Like a lot of boys who where borne in the middle of the fifties I became a boyscout. Later I moved to soccer and then  to cycling.
In the meantime when I was eighteen  and finished school I started to work as a butcher. After a year I became steward on board  of cargo boats  of the KNSM.  West coast South America and Venezuela where the destinations. Liked traveling but it was not my kind of job. Started working in  a supermarket and was volunteer in a youth center where we had a teahouse with herb teas ,a vegetarian restaurant and a house dealer. That was the time when I started to read the comics of Robert Crumb  and  TheFabulous Furry Freak brothers.   Still love them. It was in the youthcenter that I saw slides  of India.
I already had the desire to travel but then I knew it for sure. India was the place to go, and I think it still is, when you are young. See the bottom for a lot of links to India.
 
 


Take up your backpack get a ticket and go Go to India that's the place to be...................

But now the rest of the story. Hope you still enjoy my page.

I traveled  through Turkey , Iran ,Pakistan to India by Magic Bus, a forerunner of Eurolines .A one way ticket all the way from
Amsterdam to New Delhi was in 1979  395 guilders or about 200 dollar for some 10000 kilometer.
I will not tell you a story about the two years I spend there, just visit my links.
 

 I came back after this trip  and went to work in a large Humanist house for the elderly. Started evening school and
after finishing school I went to Rosmalen to work in a psychiatric hospital. Wasn't a success so after one and half year
I did jobs for uitzendbureaus. For some time I worked as a foreman at Van Gend en Loos ,a large Dutch transport company.
In 1998 I started to work  in the warehouse of a company that sells hard and software, licenses, telecom  and network solutions to end users like banks, multinationals and international law firms. When the warehouse closed I switched tothe office. Here I helped users ( within the company) when they applied for new hardware. But the company closed in 2002. And I started working in warehouses again. Much to my chagrin. Have you seen my kinky Human Animal Hybrid page ?  In the weekends I go shopping for new books, software  or for my model railroad . The theme of my HOe railroad  will be India. ( You guessed it already???). But I also spend a lot of time making photomanipulations like you see on the page I mentioned before. And I made things like a centaur and a sheepgirl on a 1:87 scale.
.
Now we are at the end of the story of my life, I put a number of links in this story. Below you will find even more links to things not related to my life but to web pages I enjoyed and thought you should see them too.
