I started writing as a way to stay connected with people I met during my travells and to keep my family and friends up to date on what im doing. So, for those of you who don’t know me personally, let me tell you a little bit about myself… :)

I live quite an unconventional life, I only own two pairs of shoes and hope that one day I can say goodbye to my life on land and instead live on a sailing boat. But, there was a time that I woke up every morning, ironed a shirt and jumped into an airplane. I spent so much energy getting my commercial pilots licence only to finish just as covid hit, this made me pivot and I spent the next 4 years working as a realestate agent in Australia. Until I quit my job and flew to the himalayas. This trip changed my life; it was the reason I started writing, and it made me fall in love with photography.

Since then, I’ve been chasing adventures all over the world, currently based in Indonesia, slowly exploring and photographing some of its 17,500 islands. My blog contains stories of these adventures and showcases my photography.

I love to share here regurarly, usually a post each week, along with daily notes.

These posts contain; Photo diaries, travel stories, thoughts and observations.

If you like the images in these posts, some of them are available as prints on my website.
