Wanderen : The Author looks towards the Serra da Estrela from the ancient Lusitanian fortified castle above Monsanto in Portugal
Home Page





Wanderen :    Middle English, from Old English Wandrian.
Wanderen is the site for those who seek an alternative to the "Rat Race" - the site was designed by me for the sole purpose of documenting our different approach to living our lives. Some may be brought here with the desire to find out about the "Hippy" lifestyle - This site is not really about that ( I like my home comforts too much ), but does contain plenty of useful and helpful information for these wishing to drop out in that way. The Wanderen site is constantly under development with new and ( occasionally ) recycled articles from my previous efforts. It is not a Travel-log, It is not a technical manual - it is a smorgasbord of musings, rants (especially in the blog!) , hints and tips and quite a few shameless plugs for my friends and those that I feel are worthy. I hope you will find something useful or even thought provoking in amongst these pages and I hope that you will feel able to contribute with your own experiences as well..
