Me

Traveling is a passion of mine, which has expanded during years of backpacking, months of field studies abroad and weeks of walking through foreign land and mountain regions. My encounters and experiences with different continents have been written down, recorded or photographed. As a journalist some of theses journeys have been published as articles regarding the situation of Beijing, radio reports from the townships in South Africa and photographs from the top of Kilimanjaro.

A couple of years ago I replaced my usual backpack with bicycle panniers as I decided to cycle home from Paris. As I eventually hit the brakes in the Swedish city Gothenburg a new bicycle plan had emerged. A trans-american journey. I am now thirty and it is finally time to venture out on my long distance dream. It all starts in Vancouver. The Canadian city, north of the border to the US will serve as my starting point for a southbound journey. The westcoast travels down the national parks of North America, the shore of Central America and mountains of South America. I long for these new views and worlds, hoping that I will be able to reach them. The finishing point is not yet certain, simply cycling the roads of America is a goal in itself.
