Trips abroad

Vietnam - Laos - Thailand
We spend 2-3 weeks with a fantastic guide in Thailand seeing the popular and nice parts of this country. In northern Thailand we visit Chiang Mai and also travel up towards the border areas of Myanmar and Laos. In the north, we play and care for elephants, fish for huge catfish, stay with mountain tribes, camp, zipline, hike, visit temples, go to night markets, and experience fantastic northern Thai food culture. In the middle of the trip we head south, where we experience a new culture, new people, beaches, boating, snorkeling, beach cleaning in marine national parks, homestay, guided boat trip on Songkhla Lake, kayaking, and more night and food markets. The entire journey contains a wide variety of Thailand's culture and nature, magical sunrises, great subjects for macro, portrait, and landscape photography, as well as workshops along the way with professional photographers.

Danmark
In Denmark, we try to capture the special light in the area around Skagen. We visit Råbjerg Mile Sand Dunes, the Sand-Covered Church, and Grenen peninsula. Grenen is a unique natural phenomenon where two seas, Skagerak and Kattegat, meet and the waves culminate with each other. We also go to an eagle reserve near Tversted, where we photograph and learn about eagles, vultures, falcons, horses, and other birds.
