April 2019

Started as a self-employed graphic designer and photographer

With butterflies in my stomach, I jumped out as a freelancer, which I have not been before. And it feels much differently than getting your fixed salary every month.

Looking for a motorhome

After quitting the idea of ​​a rebuilt overlander car, I went all-in on finding a motorhome that suited my needs.

Bumle was bought

I found Bumle in Solrød in Zealand. Bought him and took him home the same day. He was kept secret for a month before I announced to everyone what my plans were.

^
4. may - 25. august 2019

Planned the trip

Then it had to be made ready. Bumble had to go to the workshop, get solar cells and install solid-gas, etc. Pictures had to be taken and a website had to be made. I had to learn a lot of things about starting as a self-employed with accounting, VAT and tax.

Sold everything I would not have in Bumle

I chose to sell everything over a weekend at an open house/flea market. Many nice people came and bought my things. And I miss none of it.

Bumble and I left

Finally, the day was here! I drove across the border, and my ‘work and travel’ adventure had begun.

^
August - December 2019

Our first trip

I started by driving down through Germany, where I took a few days to Slovakia and visited a Dane who had previously been a nomad. Then I drove to Austria. I took some trips to southern Germany, after which I took a week in Slovenia. Then back to Austria, where I have undoubtedly spent the most time. I again took some short trips to southern Germany. Then I drove towards Luxembourg when I had a meeting. Then I drove along the border to Germany and to France. I spent some time in Switzerland, where I met a Danish woman who has lived there for many years. Then I went for a week to Vallorcine / Chamonix, where I borrowed an apartment. Then I drove back a few days in Switzerland, then drove through Germany and home on Christmas vacation in Denmark.

January - Marts 2020

Spain in the winter – but then Covid-19 got in the way!

I visited a German photographer north of Frankfurt, after which the trip went to Switzerland, where I met the Danish woman again. Had a few days in Switzerland, and then drove to France with a short drive to in Annecy, and then I drove to Spain. I managed to enjoy Spain for a few weeks before Covid-19 arrived. My mother came to visit, but unfortunately, she had to fly home before time, and a few weeks later I, unfortunately, had to drive back to Denmark.

Marts - 2020

Denmark

I rolled around Denmark for a season. I really enjoyed it because I saw more of Denmark in a relatively short time than I have seen before in my life. Because I have always travelled a lot.

September 2020

In Düsseldorf to look at new motorhomes

A four day trip to Düsseldorf. It was great to get out again. Afterwards, I could feel that it made me long for the days on the road.

^
10 days in Sverige - October 2020

I was longing

So I took 10 days in Skåne, Sweden, before Skåne also closed down. It was amazing. Among other things, I was in Söderåsen National Park, Kullaberg and Fyledalen, where I had a really fantastic weekend.

Island 3,5 months - May 2021

I was back in my loving Iceland

It was a dream to come back to Iceland. Even though I have been there many times, there were still things I would like to experience and see. Among other things, I wanted like hiking on a glacier and drone a lot. I got to drive the whole island around 2 times. Visited a lot and my mom came to visit for a week. But the top coolest thing about this trip was seeing the volcano erupt. So those were some cool months. However, 4 weeks before the trip ended, I fell and broke my ankle.

I am currently on my first trip to the countries of Eastern Europe. You can read the blog post about my thoughts on this adventure HER

Changed plans

The world changed, I changed my mind. The gut feeling said I should not continue my journey east while there was war. That’s why I drove to Spain. You can read more in detail HER

The 6 month trip south is over

I ended up staying all my time in northern Spain. And I’ll definitely be back there one day. I was mostly in mountain areas but also slipped out to shore sometimes. I have landed in Denmark, where it stands at lectures, and fairs and meets a lot of people, as well as exciting tasks.

2. December 2022

The trip goes towards the southern sun

I left a bit later on the trip as I had to get the metal out of my ankle. But it went well and I drove to southern Spain for a week. There I met a lot of nice Danes who stayed almost permanently. I benefited from daytime temperatures of 16-22 degrees. I spent Christmas alone in Portugal and New Year in Seville. My little brother visited me. And time flew by. I had to drive home a little earlier as my grandmother had fallen asleep. But all in all, a wonderful ‘little’ trip back to the sun of the south, where I was forced home 3 years ago because of the corona.

I will sail towards Iceland.
4.5 months on the beautiful island

I must return to my beloved island. I have a guided tour with people in motorhomes and a photography workshop at Grímsey. My photography friend Theis comes up by plane when I land on the ferry and we test drive the guided tour. My sister-in-law is going to visit me during the summer holidays. And then I will see my old host families and friends.

Landed well in Denmark after a wonderful trip to Iceland

4.5 months flew by. The guided tour went absolutely fantastic with wonderful people and good weather. I got all that Iceland in, because I know it will be a long time before I get up there with a motorhome again, as I’m getting a dog at the start of the new year.
Now I am in Denmark, where I have photo assignments, graphic work and give lectures. I will spend Christmas this year with the family and will only travel on a mini trip right after Christmas. But more on that when I know the plan.

December 2023

On promotour

I went on a short trip to Norway in a Malibu, to take pictures and do a promo trip.

20. April 2024

Turen går nordpå

After some time in Denmark, where I got a puppy. Now the trip goes to Norway, Sweden and Finland. We will be gone for just over 4 months. And I am so looking forward to something more Nordic. After all, I love Iceland very much and am looking forward to seeing what the Nordic countries can give me on several levels 🙂

Future travel dreams

There are SO many places I want to go.
I’m betting on a lot of winter wonderland at the end of 2024 and the beginning of 2025, when I drive the Malibu winter car, I will find snow and cold.

Why do I travel alone?

There are actually several reasons for this. I have no boyfriend, I enjoy having the freedom to do what I want. I can stop the car and work when it fits. I can stop and go for a walk and take photos whenever I want.
