I finally got to the PO box and picked up the copy of Holland Focus. What a beautiful and interesting magazine. And thank you for publishing our article - it came up magnificently. I am looking forward to showing it to people. Kathleen, Canberra Two Day Walk
Roy Wijbenga was born in 1968 in Gaasterland, Friesland in the Netherlands. Lived in Stavoren for some years and migrated with his family in 1981 to Australia. Roy is a driller and gold prospector and is the force behind this project that will turn the desert into a slice of Friesland. He has financed this whole project on his own. It started about six years ago after a little girl, Moeesha, was bitten by a mosquito and contracted encephalitis.
