Fernweh (fairn-vay): An ache for distant places.
Fernwehtun.com is a culture, history, and travel blog that is geared to the more pensive travelers and seekers of the odd and offbeat. My academic background is in anthropology, so I tend to live and travel in that mindset.
I am a singer, herbalist, certified end-of-life doula, home funeral educator, and natural burial advocate. I love animals, music, murals, gardens, parks, and museums, so you will find a lot of that in my stories.
Tell me something fascinating.
