Born in the Netherlands, Living in Beijing, China. I traveled more than fifty countries all over the world. I am a professional horticulturist and own a tree nursery in the south of Beijing where we grow foreign and Chinese trees for the domestic market.

Photography is my hobby, i like to go into the nature, to photograph plants, trees and landscape, in the city i love the daily street life and the people busy with what they are doing.

My worldwide traveling is less now but exploring China has increased.

Many of my traveling pictures can be seen on my website: http://laowaichina.com
