About this weblog

Welcome to “Kontje Travels – Get your little butt out there!”

I hope you enjoy my adventures, insights and secrets about traveling, and may you delight in the beauty of the people and the places in my photographs.

I don’t write travel journal entries, but rather publish short articles and essays, which I hope will inspire you to search out travel and adventure in your own lives.
