About

I am a mother of two wonderful kids, living with my family in Sydney, Australia. Until May 2018 home was Copenhagen, Denmark. But on a 4 month around the world trip when the kids were 4 months and 3 years we came by Sydney and instantly decided to move here. Once back in Denmark we started planning for a new adventure in Australia, and a couple of months after coming back to Denmark the dream came true and we left for Sydney. Much more about this on my travel blog http://www.gocargus.com (check it out if you want to know more about all our trips around the world).

I am crazy about traveling, my family, our friends, coffee; even consumer behavior, strategy and market research (but that’s my professional hobby).

I have always travelled a lot, and when I was 16 I left my family behind and went out on myself for the first time. I went to Tennessee, USA, and came back a year later. Full of experiences, newly graduated from high school, and with a new family. My bff Terah and her family became my American family. Even though I went back to Denmark, my heart never left Tennessee!

Since then I have taken many trips outside the borders of Denmark, and travelling will always be my passion. I have a mission of visiting all countries in the world – I’m at 58 countries as of 2023, so still some adventures to be had!

My biggest fear in life is to lose my courage. Lose my courage to live life to the fullest, to continuously seek new experiences, to break habits, and to travel. When deciding to have children, my partner and I promised each other that we would keep on traveling. We would not listen to all those who are too afraid, too lazy or too comfortable at home. We would stay true to ourselves. And here we are more than 9 years down the road and have never lost ourselves when becoming a family.

In August 2014 we were blessed with an amazing little girl, and then in February 2017 our family grew with a little lovely boy.
