I am an internationally operating consultant, specializing in outdoor recreation, conservation and conservation tourism. With a multidisciplinary and creative approach I help you offer a responsible and diversified outdoor experience.
Making conservation tourism work!
Increasing tourism pressure?
The tourism and recreation sector is one of the fastest growing industries in the world. Are you ready to be part of this? I am happy to help you capitalize on opportunities and be ahead of threats.
A multidisciplinary field
Recreation is more than just a footpath from A to B. I will help you find the balance between landscape, human behavior, the market and terrain design to create genuine added value.
First a great idea!
Outdoor areas that don’t work, insufficient community support, difficult legislation… For me it always starts with a good idea: creating a beautiful, fitting experience that makes all parties involved happy!
Cases
Intag Colibri Cabins, Ecuador
Advice on a suitable expansion of their activity program so that they will attract more visitors. This home-stay on a coffee farm is located in the middle of a privately protected cloud forest. This region in Ecuador is part of the Chocó, one of the 36 recognized biodiversity hotspots. Mining has been a threat here for decades. Visitors lead to more income, awareness and support.
Bale Mountain Tours, Ethiopia
I have helped this travel agency on their growth path to further development of their business. Tourism offers employment which contributes to a better protection of the park. In Bale Mountains National Park you can discover both breathtaking highlands and mysterious cloud forests. During their tours you will, among other things, look for the most endangered canine in the world: the Ethiopian wolf.
