It's all about the people

I have been involved in the travel industry for almost 30 years.

Originally, I started in the adventure/backpacker industry specializing in South East Asia of the beaten track. Lived in Asia and developed once-in-lifetime experiences in Indochina in the 90s.

For years, I was co-owner and COO at a Danish based tour operator Nyhavn Rejser, which we developed into the largest high-end B-to-C operator in Scandinavia. Taking it from 8 to 80 employees.

I have traveled in 100+ countries, stayed at hammocks in the jungle and the best resorts on the planet, and enjoyed the mix. Blending the two worlds creates a space of great experiences.

If we are able to take the best off the beaten track adventure travel of my youth and combine it with the best eco-lodges and small privately-owned resorts in the world, we will see diversity in travel and true authenticity come to life.
