Your personal guide with an active relationship to Odense
Let me show you around Odense, and you’ll hear stories, anecdotes, and surprising facts. Not just about Hans Christian Andersen, but also about famous and royal figures who, for better or worse, have helped shape the city into what it is today.
About me
I was born in 1965 near Odense and have since 1994 lived in the central part of the city. For over 30 years I have worked as a journalist for the local newspaper, Fyens Stiftstidende. As an author, I have written two books. One about Odense’s smallest parish, and one about fake news. I am an active member of one of the city’s most influential homeowners’ associations. So, I know quite a bit about why Odense looks the way it does … and how it could have looked.
