Rollerblading 450 kilometers; searching

for the philosophy of adventure

When I saw the most eastern part and the most western party of The Netherlands are 450 kilometers apart I directly knew this was a perfect starting point for an adventurous journey. The last time I was on rollerblades was at least 18 years ago, so this seemed the perfect time to learn it again and make the journey on rollerblades. In the midst of winter.

This journey was a research on why one would go out in the midst of winter and spend the nights in a tent. Why do people go on an adventure? To get the answer I went out on an adventure and interviewed other adventurers about their journeys and philosophy. of living an adventurous life. This resulted in the award winning documentary “Why we go out”.
