My story

A free life I create for myself.

Happiness is my Life is my space for travel, photography, podcast episodes and personal stories. It is about clarity, freedom and the decision to shape a life that truly fits me.

Here I share places, encounters, turning points and projects. Not as a perfect glossy world, but as an honest travel diary with images, thoughts and moments that stay.

About me

Artist, photographer and traveler.

I am Dirk, an artist, photographer and traveler. Every day I enjoy my health and the freedom to do what makes me happy.

With my images, I give people joy and create positive memories for them.

My passion is photography, videography and travel. Since 2009 I have offered vacation photography. Whether simple people photography or events such as weddings, family celebrations or major gatherings: wherever it is on this planet, if it inspires me, I am happy to be there.

An app for mobile lives that still need clear limits.
