Capture the World's Beauty - One Journey at a Time

Ready to feel your heart skip a beat under the stars?

My name is FLANO and I am your passport to awe-inspiring moments that you’ll be talking about for a lifetime. With my camera in hand since the days when film rolls were still a thing, I’ve mastered the art of capturing the elusive: sunsets that melt into mountains, stars so bright they might as well be diamonds, and that perfect sliver of sunrise no one else gets to see.

Did I also mention that I chase storms for lightning and tornadoes?

With me, every adventure is personalized, carefully timed, and ready to wow. My expertise ensures you get the shot, live the experience, and go home with stories that are equal parts epic and magical.

Craving a journey that blends breathtaking landscapes with the thrill of the unknown? I’m just an e-mail or call away from making it happen for you!

Looking to dive into history, savor local flavors, and uncover hidden gems that bring Europe to life?

I’ve spent nearly a decade living in Germany, stationed in Berlin, Wiesbaden, and Sembach with the U.S. Air Force as a German Linguist. I offer you more than just a tour or journey. I offer you a window into a world few travelers get to experience.

My experience of living the German culture, helps you make every castle, café, and cobbled street come alive. Whether it’s the best spot to catch a sunset over Berlin or the secret behind a centuries-old local tradition, I’ve got you covered.

I’m the travel adviser who can transform each destination into a personalized, immersive adventure.
