When I sit down to write my upcoming book, “The Denmark I Want to Remember”, I am often overwhelmed by emotion. There have been many moments where I have shed tears—both for the beautiful memories and the painful, difficult struggles I have survived. Writing has forced my mind to reflect deeply on my choices.

Maybe not many people will buy my book, and you know what? That is completely okay. The most important thing is that I have written my story. “Traveling with Anni” has finally been put onto paper, and it is officially part of a plan to be published on Saxo and Amazon. Maybe one day it…

Whenever I sit in an airplane seat and look out the window at the clouds, I usually find myself in one of two completely different worlds. In one world, I am traveling entirely solo. The itinerary is 100% mine, the silence is beautiful, and I am responsible only for myself. In the other world—which happens…

There is nothing quite like sitting on a plane by yourself, looking out the window, and realizing that the entire itinerary is completely up to you.
