From England to Norway & Beyond

I’m a British-Norwegian travel writer and speaker, but that’s not how things started out! Here’s my story.

David Nikel travel writer in Flåm, Norway.
Me in Flåm, Norway, in the winter.

I’m David Nikel, a British travel writer living and working in Norway. I write articles about all aspects of life in Scandinavia and the cruise travel industry for the world’s media.

I publish my own website and YouTube channel to tell better stories, and stay on top of trends.

Life in Norway: Check out my popular website and podcast about living, working & travelling in Norway here. Or if you prefer video, check out the YouTube channel

My travel writing journey began when I moved to Norway in 2011. I started publishing my own blogs about life in Norway and writing stories about the country for the world’s media.

In 2013, I quit my job to write full-time. In 2017, I researched and wrote the first edition of travel guidebook ‘Moon Norway’, published by Avalon Travel, now part of Hachette.

In 2023, I began speaking on cruise ships about Norway.
