The first 10 kilometers have been made possible

News

Johan-Hol-Sperwer.jpg

A great start to our ‘100 meters of wisdom‘ campaign: the first 10 of the 136 kilometers have been made possible. This week we are going to take the campaign to the media. If you want to help: with 10 Euro you can make 100 meters possible. You can invite friends via the facebook icon at the bottom or send them an email with this link. 

The photo is by nature photographer Johan Hol. His favorite area to take pictures is the Ooijpolder, the start of the route of the Walk of Wisdom. Due to an illness, Johan can’t go there very often anymore. The only ‘walk of wisdom’ he makes is from his bed to the window of the backyard where he watches the birds and patiently looks after the changes in nature. I think he’s more connected to life than many of us racing through the day.
