Willem Vandoorne's Travel Log 
Your proposed trip through New Zealand’s south island mountains looks like a dream journey of a life time! Please feel free to make contact if you need more information.
Hello Willem,
I found a site with a lot of your photos. I think it was Picasa Web albums. The Trans Scandinavia trip had over 600 photos. I cannot seem to find it again. It was just a few days ago. The trips and writing and photos are wonderful, a tribute to wilderness exploration. I would like to view the site again if it is possible to find it.
Thank you,
Bill Gordn
Hi Bill, the pictures should still be in my Picasa web albums: https://picasaweb.google.com/101015844212945897733
