2019-09-08 | Long read, Rusland, Transmongolske Jernbane | No Comments
Kan man som introvert overleve turen med den transsibiriske jernbane? Ja det kan man godt – eller rettere jeg kunne godt. Den første del af turen med toget fra Moskva til Beijing var for mig den længste. 3 dage og 4 nætter på toget, som kørte næsten 5.200 kilometer gennem 5 tidszoner for at nå […]
Det føles fremmedartet – tanken om Moskva – eksotisk, uforståeligt, barskt. Jeg kan huske flimrende sort/hvide tv-billeder af russere med pelshue, der står I lange køer foran butikkerne i sovjettiden. Vi bruger udtrykket ’en by i Rusland’ om noget, der er meget langt væk – og sådan føles det også. Men i realiteten er russerne […]

Jeg har forladt Danmark og er landede i Moskva i går. På tirsdag stiger jeg på den transmongolske jernbane og efter cirka 8.000 kilometer med tog, står jeg med fødderne solidt plantet på den kinesiske mur. Det er bare begyndelsen på min rejse jorden rundt. Det er et år siden jeg sidste gang jeg trådte […]

Der har været stille på bloggen siden jeg kom hjem fra Ghana & London i juli. Jeg har brugt sommeren på at genoverveje mit projekt. Jeg dropper det ikke, slet ikke, men jeg har måtte gentænke hvordan jeg fortæller om mig selv, min rejse og mit projekt. Der har været for meget sammenblanding mellem mig […]
I just left Ghana after a visit which seemed too short. It was my first trip back to western Africa since Sofie & I visited Mali 14 years ago. Back then Mali was a peaceful country and we travelled with Sofie’s friend Martha, her brother Simon, her mom Dorthe and her dad David (who is […]
The final episode of Babelfish season 1 has been published. The podcast will be on holiday until August. So far 30 interviews with non-believers from 7 countries in the eastern and southern parts of Africa have been produced. I have talked to humanists, atheists and freethinkers from Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, Tanzania, Malawi, Botswana and South […]
It wasn’t part of my plan to visit Portugal this year. I want to do a Europe tour at some point visiting all the European countries. I want to wait interviewing non-believers in this part of the world where is seems to be easier than in other parts. But since I was in the neighbourhood, […]

My life stance is humanism and my values are based on human rights. This means I belong to a minority in this world since most people are religious. I have not really considered myself being part of a minority before I started my travels and talked to other non-believers. But we are a minority. In […]

I’ve just spent four days in London with my family. My daughter Sofie and her boyfriend Rasmus has been living there since August. Both my mom and I have birthdays in March. So, we went there for our birthday celebrations and to spend some time together for once. I love London. I love the diversity, […]

I just finalized my next article. Its about my visit to Rwanda and it has been difficult writing it. Its been tough thinking about my visit again, so emotional. I ended up spending several days writing the article, because I needed breaks in between. Thinking about all those people killed during the genocide. All those […]
