This website illuminates my life and adventures. My longing for freedom has led me to over 2450 of the world’s 3978 provinces, to every country on earth and to the summit of the highest peak on each continent (thank heaven for good weather!). In my travels, I learned to respect the intelligence and ingenuity of people of all races and callings both past and present. Come see the world as I see it: as a peaceful place, full of nature and beauty. With the right spirit and intent, we can make our world a virtual Garden of Eden.

Seram, Cornelius, 2006 - Cornelius lived in Lafoko, a place in the interior of Seram which had few if any other people living there. He came to Pak Manu's house. Martinus put him up to pretending to be one of the Suku Terasing. But actually, he admitted, his was not. He had serious medical problems. There are no doctors in the rain forest, at least not here. I sent some medicine for worms through an intermediary (to give to Dunias to give to Cornelius), just in case that worms were the cause of his problem. It is an ethical question of whether it is better to administer medicine with a chance for possible cure (and very low probability of side effects) or to simply do nothing, in which case he would certainly continue to suffer.
