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.
