I recently walked home from a beautiful place where I spent a month working on a new project. I walked for 3 days and 75 km. leaving a trail of Cosmos bipinnatus Daydream seeds. I carried 10.000 seeds with me, some were still in my pockets when I came home. I will send you 10 of those seeds.

You will be the first one to hear about exciting new developments, get an invitation for any art project I am involved in and I might send you some of my writing that i haven't published yet. I will send you 10 Cosmos Daydream seeds from my recent 3 day walk. And always welcome for tea/coffee and a chat.

I love photography and I've got a soft spot for instant or polaroid film because of it's slowness, directness and unpredictability. I will send you a framed unique polaroid photo (photo 9 x 11 cm, metal frame 26 x 26 cm plus passepartout). Plus your personal story, a handwritten postcard and always welcome for tea or coffee. (The rest of the reward: once a year).

I will take you on a week long walk starting from the place where I am at home (currently Barcelona) to experience how I do my walking. It might mean sleeping in the wild, foraging your own food, surviving with simple means, improvising and going with what comes on our path. I'll be your personal guide or you might end up being your own guide. Plus all the rewards mentioned at "a long distance walk". (Once a year).
