I got tired of fast-paced Instagram and made my own slower corner of the internet to share my best travel tips, random nomad thoughts and photographs from the journeys.

I happen to be kind of a professional in this as well, as I have my Master's degree within Tourism Research and both my master's and bachelor's thesis are about yoga travel. I'm also RYT-500 certified Yoga Teacher.


I want to share the best knowledge as well as some deeper, honest thoughts what for example being digital nomad actually is.
