Meeting Royalty Abroad: A Danish Prince

As an American, I find the concept of royalty intriguing. I can't say I really know where I stand on the issue.  On the one hand, it seems like a fun nod to history and a great added cultural dynamic to help represent a nation's culture, heritage, and identity without many of the political trappin…

Three Hundred Twelve Boot Shots, Five Years and Five Continents

A few years ago I decided that I wanted to craft a signature photo. Something that I could easily carry with me, that I could insert into photo after photo that would help humanize shots.  I wanted something that could…

Oslo Culture Clash – Weekly Travel Photo

Today's feature highlights an interesting cross-section of history. Snapped in the Oslo Fjord, it is of a small fisherman's church (or shrine, I'm not sure which) *Scratch that, I've been told it is a converted lightho…

Turning 28 Abroad and Reflecting on Success

As I sit here in a small internet cafe on a blustry Turkish day in the small coastal town of Bodrum, I find it hard to believe that I'm already celebrating my 28th birthday.  I suppose it isn't the most remarkable of b…

A Norwegian Sunrise – Weekly Travel Photo

We found our way to Oslo as part of a mini-cruise special.  The cruise ship - and it was a cruise ship, not the ferry I expected - left Copenhagen at 4PM in the afternoon, steamed over night to Oslo and then disgorged …

2012 – A Year of Travel In Photographs

2012 was one of my best travel years to date.  In it I added two new continents, four brand new countries and scratched some pretty major destinations off my bucket list.  In addition to completing my first year in Copenhagen I made it to the United Arab Emirates, Scotland, England, Germany, Swede…

Real Danish Food: Nørrebro’s Little Smørrebrød Shop

Authentic Danish food is the Sasquatch of the Euro-Scandinavian culinary scene.  There's Noma of course, as well as a small army of Michelin Star restaurants but talking about them as authentic outlets for Danish food …

Winter in Copenhagen – Weekly Travel Photo

Winter has arrived in Copenhagen. After a week of light snow, the lakes have started to freeze over and the city center has traded slick paving stones for a clean layer of white snow. I captured this moment late-aftern…

Snow Covered Copenhagen

How do you take a picturesque city with beautifully colored buildings, elegant canals, and wide pedestrian streets and make it even more picture perfect?   You add snow.  At least, that seems to be the approach Copenha…

The Colors of Copenhagen – Friday’s Weekly Travel Photo

As I round out my first year in Copenhagen I can now look back over my time here and reflect on each of the seasons.  The blustery rainstorms and beautiful days of late summer. The gorgeous golden hues of fall.  The st…

In 2007 I set out on a three-month solo trip through Europe, in 2011 I re-located to Copenhagen. I’ve been authoring VirtualWayfarer ever since with a focus on sharing stories, musings, and advice through a visually and narrative rich format. I’m also the author of Practical Curiosity: The Guide to Life, Love & Travel and the inventor of the MistDefender lens cloth.

I document my travels on a Sony A7RV and iPhone 16Pro.
