Hi, My name is Jan-Willem. I’m the person behind Expedition Coconut, a place where I document travel and the different paths I’ve explored along the way.

My route hasn’t been strictly linear. I’ve moved between studies, office work, ski seasons, and other travel adventures. Mostly by following curiosity and adjusting course when something didn’t feel right.

This site is where I share what I learn and experience. Both the practical side and the personal side for people who are figuring things out as they go.

You don’t need to have everything figured out in life. A good next step is enough.
