The Other Kind Of Danish

On a trip to Denmark I thought I might start on some travel videos – because – who doesn’t want to sit around and watch other people’s video of travel, right? I mostly made them for myself, because I wanted to remember elements of the trip without having to scroll through dozens of photos at a time.

Turns out that others wanted to see it, too, so I made a series of videos from various places I visited. Some were elaborate, with high-end cameras, drones and other photo equipment. Some were simply shot with my iPhone.

On this trip to Denmark, my wife thought it would be fun to live as a local in the middle of Copenhagen in an AirBnB. It was a blast. The owner of the spot was a huge fan of jazz, and that inspired some fun international conversations about music.

This trip ended with a short tour of Norway, but I broke my toe climbing in Bergen and forgot about filming. It did result in some nice photos, however.
