The Full Story
FERNVAY SONDER
Names hold stories, and Fernvay Sonder is no exception.
I wanted a name that embodied my purpose, my love of the world and the moments that make it feel alive.
​
Travel has always been my way of connecting with new cultures, people, and different perspectives. Photography has always been my way of holding onto those transient moments.
​
Fernvay speaks to the call of the open world, to the adventures waiting beyond your comfort zone.
Sonder reflects the idea that we can find beauty and tell unique stories everywhere, whether across oceans or in our own backyards.
​
Together, Fernvay and Sonder represent not just travel and photography, but also a lifestyle of discovery and human connection.
FERNVAY
It's a play on the German word "Fernweh," meaning an intense desire to explore the world and see faraway places. Fernweh is pronounced fern-vay.
I spent many years of my life living in Germany and have always felt attached to this word.
This is the heart of my travel planning. I help you feel confident. I help you feel excited. I help you feel ready to explore anywhere your passport can take you.
