Journeys & performances
It seems like a great adventurous idea: walking from Paris in France to Groningen in the Netherlands in three months along the path of Saint Martin. A brand new route through Europe named after the legendary Saint Martin. When Tjerk starts the 1,234 kilometer long journey, only one pilgrim has preceded him.
Tjerk Ridder hitchhiked across Europe, from Utrecht to Istanbul, with a caravan – but without a car. Under the title 'Towbar Needed! – You need others to keep you going', he was literally searching for towbars and thus for goodwill, hospitality and trust.
In search of the personal meaning of freedom, Tjerk Ridder traveled with the Belgian draft horse Elvi through various landscapes and past specific places of freedom and unfreedom in Western Europe.
Unterwegs kann zu Hause sein,
Unterwegs es gibt keine Pause nein,
Unterwegs in das Leben hinein
From the song Unterwegs
