my travel writing

Therme Erding

There and Back

edelweiss // first draft

“I was born lost and take no pleasure in being found.”

A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving.

“Now more than ever do I realize that I will never be content with a sedentary life, that I will always be haunted by thoughts of a sun-drenched elsewhere.”

ABOUT

The author

After graduating from the University of Florida, Chipper moved to Germany, where he spent the next chapter of his life exploring cultures abroad and traveling across Europe.

From small Bavarian towns to bustling city streets, each place left its mark and shaped a deeper love for culture and connection; those years sparking a lifelong curiosity for people and places beyond the familiar. Now back home, he continues to chase that same sense of discovery through his work and writing.
