Hi There,

Welcome to my Home Page. I hope that you will enjoy my travel pages and tips.

My name is Koen (where the OE is pronounced as "oo" in "book"). I live in a very small town in the North part of Belgium. You will notice that I do like to travel.

Fortunately, my job brings me to a lot of places on this globe. You will notice that some of my travel is business related, but that I allways extend my stays to allow me to visit the neighbourhoud.

Let me know where these pages can be improved and what you like.

Happy travelling!

Koen

Koen at golf

Reasons why not all my pages are up to date:

1. I'm travelling too much to have all my pages up to date
2. Most of my travel is business related
3.I prefer to go out and play golf, rather then sit behind the PC.
4. When I'm at home, a lot of things need to be done urgently...
(more excuses to follow...)

Koen's electronic mail

Hi all,
My VT-mailbox was starting to become another of these spam-collecting mailboxes. Therefore: My virtualtourist mailbox has been set to block mails from the outside.

POEM

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

The Road Not Taken
