Hi, I´m Em!

For the past years I have been traveling and exploring the world one adventure at a time, at my own pace and in my own way. I learned so much about the world and myself, and became beyond passionate about living your life as fulfilled as you can dream it.

It’s been an incredible few years, but during this time, there were two things I missed and craved incredibly. Being part of a community that shares my values, and having a creative space to pour all my experiences, creativity and passion into.

That’s how Setting Sail came to life! My little bubble where I hope to inspire you through my stories around the globe, give you an encouraging starting point to bring your dreams to life, and build a community to share all the wholesome experiences and lessons with that this big world offers. Let’s create a space for connection, adventures and reflection together!

Too dangerous to do myself. And now I’m sitting here on my night shift. The moon is up, the stars are bright. Waves glistening with bioluminescence.”

“Being flexible, curious, and willing to say ‘yes’ to unexpected opportunities can take you to places, people, and experiences that end up changing your life.”
— Carla, Spain

Get in touch!

We’re all in this together - if there is one thing I have learned throughout the past years of figuring life out, it is that people will make the difference.

We want to be independent and we love our freedom, I get it, trust me I do. But at the end of the day there is nothing better than finding the people that share your passions and mindset, that see and understand you for you.

So - please reach out! Let`s build a community that supports each others wildest dreams and lives life to the fullest. I can´t wait to hear from you!
