Manfred is creator of ThisFabTrek.com, travel photography, a travel blog and a photography blog (a journey since 2004).
I try to understand, report and photograph, enjoy, live and inhale different conceptions of life (all that TV [and the web] cannot give). I reject jealousy, animosity, bigotry. Be free!
The mind, when pondering at night had always asked those questions. What am I doing in corporate wonderland of bank, university, office or church? Who is the other animal asleep deep inside, the thinker, punk, creative, or Indian, vagabond and healer, maybe artist, writer, photographer, traveler, globetrotter? Oh God, dare you to think. When seeing the lies, gambles and manipulations I follow the old dream and set out for the real journey, the one that is call life lived.
During years on the road that I have taken the turns as they came along I have realized one thing: Only such a small part of the planet can be explored and such a vast land and sea mass will always remain unknown, to me; many swamps, jungles, deserts and oceans will never be travelled. But then I am father of twin boys, Daniel and David, my most important, and I show them some of the wonders that are out there. ThisFabTrek, is ongoing. Photography and Journey, Stories from the Road and Life around the World, Love and Peace.
Every truck needs a lady. The G20, the vehicle that came to me for the Americas adventures.

Living to Tell the Tale - Gabriel García Márquez.
"They never taught wandering in any school I attended. ... they never taught the art of writing a book, either. It's all so mysterious."
"Wandering is an art in itself. Wandering and writing don't mix"
"Writing demands commitment and if one thing your wanderer is allergic to is that very quality of commitment, for once one is committed he runs that very risk of failure ..."
Wanderer - Sterling Hayden.
