Man i really want to travel this year, i have been thinking of traveling all year.<br>But that stupide germ thing... Oh well, nothing you can do about it.
At the end of 2019 i wanted to go to China, do a little hiking and camping across the chinese wall! Visiting the cities of Beijing and Shanghai, visit the rice terraces of Yuanyang and of course Zhangjiajie National Park!<br>
This december i wanted to go to Chilli, to look at the solar eclipse that is occurring in two days. To bad that things were too uncertain this year to book a flight! Didn't want to get sick in a faraway country.
But no worries for me, i am only 42 years old so time enough to travel. <br><br>This year the only traveling outside the netherlands where a couple of trips to Belgium. Did some urban exploring around the city of Liege and some hiking trips in the Ardennes, a big national park that stretches from germany to Luxembourg and Belgium.

Those trip i took with my VW campervan, just like tonight, i am typing this blog from my van. Currently standing near the town of Nijmegen because tomorrow i will go for a sunrise trip to a national park in this area.

<h2>My first cover shoot</h2>
Today i was at the presentation of a book of a friend of my! I did some photo work for the book and my picture is on the cover. It's my first cover shoot :p I am not sure where the book is about because i just looked at the pictures if they were good, it's a spiritual yoga kind of thing.

<h2>Hatertse en Overasseltse Vennen!</h2>
Tomorrow i will visit the Hatertse en Overasseltse Vennen, it's a very divers but small nature park. I have been there bev=for but the sunrise wasn't that good. Forecast looked good a couple of days ago but the weather has changed.

Will go to bad now. Its almost 23:00 hour. Tomorrow i lmake some stories on my <a href="https://www.instagram.com/peter_van_haastrecht/?hl=nl">instagram account</a> and if the pictures i take are any good i will show them here.
Edit* <br>I woke up this morning and it was raining! I decided to stay in the van instead of going to drive out to the national park. Al of a sudden the sky turned orange! It was just for 1 minute but glad i always have my camera ready :)
