Time seems to have stood still on Mykines, a small island in the middle of the Atlantic.

Between green meadows and old turf-roofed houses, 12–14 people, a few dogs and countless puffins call this place home. To the west, there’s nothing but the open Atlantic, where the sun disappears beyond the horizon each evening. Ripple by ripple..
When the sea is angry and waves crash against the shore, the village can only be reached by helicopter. And when the storm is mighty enough, Mykines can be completely cut off from the outside world. Sometimes, I secretly wish I could isolate myself here during one of those storms. Instead, I brought a 100-year-old driftwood table from Mykines home with me, crafted by a local artisan. Now, whenever I want to shut the world out, I brew a coffee, flip through my book and let my mind wander back to this tiny island.

The art of catching sheep on a cliff in the middle of the Atlantic - Stakkurin, 2020.

Once a year, the Faroese venture out onto this cliff to bring back sheep that have been roaming there for months, grazing on lush grass, surrounded by the Atlantic and the edge of the rock. To reach them, farmers from the nearby village of Tjørnuvík built a human-powered cable car to an exposed sea stack - Stakkurin.
Following along, observing and documenting the entire day was one of my first field experiences with Faroese sheep culture. It deeply inspired me to look closer and reminded me of my own childhood, growing up among sheep in a small village in the middle of Germany.. surrounded by forests rather than the ocean.

Proud to finally present my debut photobook - Wild Atlantic.

What started with a trip to the Faroe Islands grew into a deeply personal connection with the North Atlantic. Over the past decade, I’ve returned again and again, chasing storms, silence, light and exploring the relationship between land, sea and people.

This book brings together the photographs and stories that have shaped my work - a journey through the untamed and raw beauty of the Faroe Islands, created in collaboration with German publisher .

You can pre-order it now - releasing October 1st. Available in German. Link in bio.

Little did I know what I was actually doing when setting up a bike for a month of bikepacking. Still, I spent weeks researching rigs, packs and every possible solution.
I knew from the beginning that I wanted something clean and sophisticated, but above all, functional.
That’s when I found Moga Bags. Handmade and custom-made for my titanium frame, the bags have been with me all the way through Norway and it’s been a joy riding with them. ⛓️🖤

Taking the backroads to quiet beaches, waking up to the sound of waves and cold, humid air surrounding my tent. It took hours for the sun to finally reach the beach and by then I was already back in the saddle, looking for the next place to spend the night.

Picked up an Olympus Mju II three days before my trip to Norway and I’m so happy I did. A few rolls of Kodak Gold later, I captured some of my favorite shots while cycling around. So many times on the bike, I’d quickly grab the Olympus instead of my clunky digital one. Something about bikepacking and film just fits so well.. 🎞️✨
