"Welcome to Jan Willem" a005116's Profile

They always say that everyone should have at least one addiction. Well my addiction is certainly travelling. However I haven't been traveling that much yet, I've big plans. I want to see the world; from Brussels to Cape town, from Beijing to San Jose. I want to become a real globetrotter.

Costa Rica

At the end of august 2002 I left for more than seven months to Costa Rica and the rest of Central America. I was there participating in the comunity service programm of AFS during the first 5,5 months. I worked as a park ranger in mainly in 'El Bosque nacional Diria' but also in 'Parque nacional Marino las Baulas' and 'Reserva absuluto Cabo Blanco'. When the project was finished I started traveling for the next 1,5 month true the rest of Central America.

PS if someone is interested, you find the international afs site on www.afs.org and the flemish one on www.afsvlaanderen.be

The happy frog

During those 7 months I fell in love with Latin America, with Costa Rica, ... and indeed also with my Costa Rican girlfriend, Meylin. In just a few weeks I will see here again in her paradise country. I'm realy looking out to that!

The only problem with all these very beautifull plans is the financial aspect. Enfin money or not you can't stop me exploring other worlds!
