Greek Mountain Flora
Us, that are Klaas Kamstra and José van Son. In
the summer of 2002 we decided to live
another life, so we sold our home and quit our jobs to go and
travel for the coming time in our
Mercedes Iglhaut Sprinter. We decided to go to Iran and Oman on our
first trip, returning
from Oman we stayed in Iran for almost 3 months.(www.iran-omantour.com)
Here we made an
extensive search for species of the genus Dionysia.(www.dionysia4u.com)
We also like Greece and Turkey very much, while returning from the
Middle East we started
making plans to organise specialist tours in the mountains of
Greece.(www.alpines-offroad.com)
Once back in Greece(September 2003), we began preparing these
tours. A big part of these
preparations was making walks in the various mountains. As a result
of the explorations a lot
of pictures of plants were taken, a selection of which you can find
on the pages of this site.
During the winter months of 2004/2005 we made another trip to the
Middle East, this time
we visited Syria, Jordan and Egypt. March 2005 we returned to
Greece to do some more
exploring, September 2005 we returned to Holland. We hope we can
continue our explorations
in the near future.
