About Me

I grew up in Southern Africa, but moved to Europe as a kid.
Like H. C. Anderson wrote: “ To travel is to live”. I truly believe that.
And quoting Bilbo Baggins“It's a dangerous business, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to”
I help manage a small farm with holiday apartments in the south of Denmark. On the farm we get lots of “woofers” from all over the world to help us out. Its a great way to meet people and new cultures.
Recently me and a friend did “work-away”for a year, travelling around Europe.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Pretty much every morning when I wake up with my tent somwhere in the wilderness.
