Author Description

Mr. Mattheus is the travelling alter ego of the author and this book is a report on his Eco-Walk from Amsterdam to Jerusalem - a walk of more than 6500 kilometers that takes him across high mountains and deep valleys. He brings his green message with him from Western Europe to the former Soviet Countries, over the Carpathians, to Asia Minor and deep into the Middle East. He experiences lots of mysterious encounters and dangerous adventures, just to save our nature and tell everybody that we should take more care about our fragile ecosystem. Thijs Postma (1955) enjoys walking in unspoiled nature. But his biggest passion is traveling. He loves to explore magical places or famous cities or deserted beaches. He is always looking for new extremes, foreign cultures and inspiring people.
