During a diving holiday in Egypt I got a text-message from my wife Ditta: "Next year for our summer holiday we go to Iceland".
This was November 2015; back home I joined in the preparation she had already started.
December 2015 I tried booking a ferry from Hirtshals Denmark to Iceland, with the car.
It didn’t work, it said no place available. After a call I still got a ferry booking.
From now on things got serious.
Ditta was preparing our own road book, with everything she could find on the internet.
I started watching almost every available YouTube film on river crossing on Iceland.
We decided that our 4x4 Toyota Hilux needed some preparation too.
Air suspension and snorkel installed, and we did not the forget the vent of the rear cardan shaft vent, it needed to be placed higher up to prevent water entering while crossing a river.
As we anticipated not to have shower facilities available at all times we prepared disposable washcloths form old bath towel.
Ditta prepared route maps and made a rough plan for the trip.
Finally I got my cameras ready, we packed and got on our way.
I will post more on our trip, if you wish you can check my youtube channel to view more.

During summer 2016 and 2019 I visited Iceland with my wife Ditta. We traveled in our own 4x4 Toyota Hilux with camper unit. Filming above and under water is my passion, sea-life while diving, nature, travel, 4x4 driving with our Toyota Hilux with camper unit. Iceland made a very big impression and we are planning to spend more time on Iceland.In 2019 we guided a group of 8 Iceland prepared 4wd throu the Highlands tacking Froads and unmarked tracks. In 2016 I stared aerial filming with a drone, I filmed the beautiful region around my home in Holland. I started to make video clips in 2013. During time I have improved my filming and editing. I film a variety of issues underwater, on land and from the air. I try to use creative common music as much as possible.
