If you can divide, you can also multiply

Almost five years ago I completed my Camino de Santiago route Camino Frances. A walk of approx. 784 kilometer across the Pyrenees to Santiago de Compostela.

During a meeting of the Dutch Camino support group one man in person motivate me to write the book about my camino for which I’m still grateful. Jeroen Gooskens, RIP.

When I published my book many persons bought it and thanked me via Twitter and Facebook. I even got recognized several times.

I would like to give back to the persons who are considering walking.

Tribute David Bowie

Tribute David Bowie

I can remember it very well. I was 10 years and went to my barber. How do you want your hair now he asked me. I said proud”Like David Bowie has in his music video clip China Girl”. He didn’t know David Bowie. I was disappointed as I wanted to have my hair like him.

There are many songs from David Bowie which impress me a lot. Here a small selection from his vast repertoire:

Heroes

We can be heroes, just for one day.

Blue Jean

I always liked this song but during my camino it got even more special. Read this back on http://camino.ramonddevrede.nl/en/13-07-2011-los-arcos-logrono/

Under pressure

How many persons are captured in their own life caused by the pressure they experience?

These are my favorite sentences from this song:

Watching some good friends
Screaming, “Let me out!”

Insanity laughs under pressure we’re cracking

Space Oddity

A very nice song with a storyline… touches me again and again when I listen to it…

Quote
“Here am I floating
round my tin can
Far above the Moon
Planet Earth is blue
And there’s nothing I can do.”

David now you are far above the moon.. RIP…
