Advice to travelers

You should visit Ribe, it is a pleasant and typical Danish small town, only about 3 hours from Copenhagen and a good base to go visit theisland of Mandø!

Message in a bottle

Try sailing, you will be amazed at how inspiring it is!

Travel philosophy

I grew up in the small viking town of Ribe and have lived there most of my life, but travel a lot by boat since I guess it is a part of my genes...I like the idea that I am exploring the world around me just as my ancestors did a long time ago!

Unforgettable encounter

An old sailor I met one day who shared his childhood memories with me along with a home-cooked meal his wife had prepared.

Coolest object ever found

My little boat!

If you were the Head of a Ministry for Tourism and Travel, what would be your first law?

Sailing should be taught to more children as it is a fun and environment friendly way to travel and discover the world and others.

Best memory

My favorite moments in life are those where I can admire the scenery as it passes by while navigating down the river. It is never the same twice in a row and you see new things every time!

Worst memory

I once had an accident with another boat - no big deal but it was quite frightening at the time....
