nurse, traveller, waver, raver.

If you're here, you've probably been wondering where I've been.

My life is split between family, nursing, and the road. In my 40s, I've been wandering through 34 countries. I re-discovered the LoBe for surfing late in life, not to be a pro, but just in time to be happier. So nowadays, travel and surfing just go together like wax on a board. I love roads less travelled, low seasons, and empty places. I take photos to hold onto moments, not to influence anyone, just because I love colour and I think the world is too big and beautiful not to share.

This isn't a feed or a travel blog, so you won't find descriptions. I like to keep places as I found them, so you might not even know where a photo was taken unless you've been there yourself.

One LoBe started as a photography blog more than 10 years ago and has evolved into an independent platform, now part of the World Wide Web dot Com. That idea inspired my own WWW: a life of Wandering the World and its Waves. A space where you don't have to follow, like or comment. Just an open window to the places I've discovered.

Don't drop in on waves but feel free to drop in a message.

Peace
V.
