Hi, Iβm Jenny!
polyglot. writer. adventure seeker.
A Swedish-Luxembourgish wordsmith with a vagabond heart and a whirlwind soul. Growing up in the melting pot of two cultures, Iβm carving out my own unique place in the world, something I do best from the horseback, in the forest, by the ocean or living out of my suitcase. And through writing stories, although mostly otherβs ;)
This is a place where I tell mine. Follow along!
My approach to writing is characterized by a profound respect for the subjects and a keen eye for capturing authentic moments in time. I aspire my pieces to convey a sense of intimacy and invite the reader to forge connections with the people and places featured. I strongly believe in the transformative power of storytelling and the way words can craft entire universes within people's minds, transporting them to new worlds and offering diverse perspectives. I strive to inspire introspection and draw forth dialogue that encourages positive change.
