A Dutch Christian, who helped Jews during World War II, he is a survivor of imprisonment by the Germans.

A fluent speaker in several languages, he is intimately familiar with the countries on this trip and their history. Cor will be with the group throughout Europe.

____________________________________

More private links will be on our new interesting and blogs links sites. Maybe XML too. But don's ask when we have time for that. 

Responsible for this website is Jacob Suijk.
He is the one who may be tackled (by email please) for questions about these tours and content of the site. He will be more than happy to answer your emails. (for email see the contact us page)

Tip from the "webmaster":
Printing all the pages of this site will take many sheets of our valuable paper but to avoid printing too many; please reset the margins for the paper layout to the absolute minimum (0.2 inch will do for left and right) and also to avoid text on the utter right hand side falling off.
You may also check your font size setting, with medium or less this all should fit on the paper.

Tip number 2:
Don't worry about this website not being actual or updated every week. The tours will continue and each year better than the year before.

Tip number 3:
Have a look at YouTube for coincidences, and let's change this world soon. I love to receive emails about this hot topic.
Don't forget to elect the president that will do so.
