About Me

My name is Jippe and I'm from Friesland, The Netherlands. I'm a keen sustainable traveller with a background in International Relations and an interest in history.

How I Work

I will set out on a long bicycle adventure, during which I'll be on the lookout for inspiring stories.

My Philosophy

Increasing polarisation, climate change, geopolitical tensions and wars make for a depressing outlook on the world for many. This is not the whole story, however. I believe there are positive forces at play that have the power to change the world.
