Inspired by nature’s wildest landscapes these illustrations show how I experienced national parks in the United States.

The northern lights, one of the things still on my wanderlust bucket list. And a lot of pinetrees, because after all our travels in 2018 I’m absolutely sure: my favourite places are deserts and pine forests.

A set of icons inspired by a nightly forest adventure.
A night in the forest is always a magical experience! The trees turning into shapes, a sudden cry of an owl and the light of the moon lighting the path. You can always count on me when planning a an outdoorsy adventure at night!

Bird migration is the regular seasonal movement of birds between breeding and wintering grounds. When conditions at feeding sites become les favorable it’s time to fly to a different region. It really is amazing, all these birds flying hundreds and thousands of kilometers to find the best conditions for feeding and raising their young.
How they navigate is truly incredible; they’re able to use the sun and stars, geomagnetic fields and even polarised light as their compass to navigate to their next destination.

There is something about camping in bear country that adds just that tiny bit extra to an already adventurous camping trip!
