What

About Audrey

What

I specialize in personal essays, travel writing, technical writing, book reviews, and other works of creative non-fiction.

You'll find me with pen in hand in cafés, parks, museums, and on trains. I'll write anywhere! However, my current studio is the second bedroom of my attic flat in Oslo.

Where

To kindle a kinship with my readers, to answer their questions (all of which are also my own). Writing helps me to organize my thoughts and to make sense of things.

Why

Writers spring from a common soil, enriched by all the beautiful, precise, and rousing writing that has come before and that continues to grow around them.

My personal blog is equal parts Travelogue, Expat Journal, and Creative Outlet. Several hundred visitors come across my blog each month; some are curious about expat life, others look for trip reports on the hikes we take in the Oslomarka and climbs we have made in Yosemite. I'm grateful that so many stick around to read my musings. No matter where I live or what phase of life I eventually enter into, I know I will always be The Girl Behind the Red Door.
