aha, this ostrich was either hungry or angry. Funnily she attempted to bite the mic blimp while trying to record it last October. Anyway ostriches are not really noisy neither cooperative.  :-/

Four years. Countless recordings.

Since 2022, my life has gradually shifted from full-time nomad to a semi nomadic life with Asia as my base. Along the way, I've recorded winds, jungles, volcanoes, cities, cultures, and some of the world's most unique ecosystems.

Most of these moments have never had their own video. Some became sound libraries, many only appeared briefly in stories, and countless recordings simply became part of the journey.

This film brings them together for the first time. A personal look back at four years in the field, and a glimpse into the work, places, and experiences that have shaped this chapter of my life.

Thank you for following along.
