Explore With Lotta

Welcome to my new blog!

For the past three years, I’ve been travelling the world in search of adventure — deserts, jungles, mountains, remote islands, and all the strange and beautiful places in between. But my story with capturing the world started long before that. I’ve been photographing for about 15 years, always with the feeling that images can tell a story that goes beyond what words sometimes can.

I’ve loved sharing my journeys on social media. Truly. Creating stories, reels, little snapshots of life on the road has been a joy. But lately, I’ve been longing for a space where I can express myself more deeply. Somewhere the words don’t disappear after 24 hours, and the stories don’t drown in an endless feed. So here we are.

On this blog, I want to write about the way I travel, the things I learn, the places that move me, and the reflections that don’t always fit into a short caption. I’ll also go back and write about some of my earlier adventures, since I still get questions about them all the time! And honestly, there’s so much more to tell than what ever fit into an Instagram post.

I’ve always felt a little scattered in my interests. I don’t travel full-time. I’m building a medical career, doing research, chasing knowledge, and trying to understand the world both from the outside and from my inner world. For a long time, I thought I needed to choose one path. But maybe there are more people out there like me — people who don’t want to fit into a box, who want to live out their full potential across many different parts of life, and who want to follow the dreams that call them, even when they lead in a hundred different directions.

If that’s you too, welcome.
And if you’re just here because you love travel, photography, or the thrill of discovering something new — welcome as well.

I’m excited to begin this journey in a slightly different format.
Let’s see where it takes us.
