I’m a writer and photographer from Ogden, Utah, based in Aarhus, Denmark. A lifelong student of the wider Islamic World, I’ve covered its span—from North Africa to the Maluku Islands—for a range of publications. Working with Rough Guides, Lonely Planet, Insight Guides and others, I’ve authored and updated 30 travel guidebooks, conducting extensive in-country research across Egypt, Jordan, Oman, Indonesia, India, Pakistan, Turkey and Italy. I’ve also published work on Sidetracked, BBC Travel, Outside, Lonely Planet Magazine, GEOSpecial, Quillette, Gulf Life and National Geographic Traveler, among other outlets, and hold a Master of Arts in Arab & Islamic Studies.

I’m always keen for the next adventure. Be it words or images you’re after (or both), I’d love to hear from you!
