About Jesper Rosenberg
Thank you for visiting this website. My name is Jesper Rosenberg, I was born April 4. 1975 in Copenhagen, Denmark and raised on an island called Amager.
My desire to travel the world has been with me since early age. My grandmother came back to Denmark after a trip to Hongkong and Australia telling me stories how great it had been. I was around 10 years old and that is my earliest memory of me wanted to travel.
Right after highschool I didn't want to continue another school so I took a job in a candy-factory to earn money for my first travel with out my parents. At this point I was 17 years old. In 1993 I went to America with some friends and bought a camper-van. For 3 months we drove around California and Nevada, skateboarding everywhere. After the 3 months in the van I went to Hawaii for a month all by my self and I had just turned 18 years old.
The traveling and desire to see the world hasn't stopped and now I'm the skipper on my own sailboat.
In 2001 I did the Padi Open Water Diver certificate in Denmark. By 2004 I became a Padi Dive Instructor (MSDT#506091) in Phuket, Thailand and has been working in Denmark, Thailand, Malaysia and Curaçao.
A philosophy - live while you can - I'm trying to live by, sort of made me sell everything I owned in Denmark and with the money I bought a sailboat in Florida, USA. With various people and friends I have sailed around the Caribbean.
I have crossed The Caribbean Sea 5 times, cruised The Intercoastal Water Way, The Bahamas, Dominican Republic, The Virgin Islands, Windward Islands, Leeward Islands, ABC Islands, Venezuela, the Colombian coast and Panama.
I made this website mainly to show my photos and stories from the weird and wonderful things I encounter around the world. My passion for photography started in 2000 after a trip to the Philippines. I only had a small 35mm camera I bought for 20 dollars, I had brought along and the result was not impressive. Well, if it had been a party in Copenhagen the photos would be ok, but this was one of the best trips I had made and I only had a few shot I thought was ok. Something I still regret today.
Ever since I have filled many baskets with 35 mm films and harddrives with digital photos trying to freeze special moments. Once again, thank you for visiting my website...
