I’m Jannik Hansen – a Dane that left Denmark at 19 years old. I started my first business as a teenager. I found my wife when I was 23 years old and today in my mid 30’s and we have three kids together (so 11+ years in… counting💪).
On this blog I’m going to write about everything from my role as a dad, husband but also how I cope with my work life.
After leaving Denmark, I’ve lived in 6 different countries. I guess even we are a family now, you could still call us slow-digital nomads.
My wife and I have our own Youtube channel, where we primarily help other expats into new countries (Portugal for now).
Building in public
I’m a great fan of building software. But also – of the movement of Building-in-Public (IndieHackers). This is my way to share what I am learning. What progress I make. What I find that works and the things that goes straight in the bin.
If we need to talk – or if you want to be interviewed for this channel – lets talk. [email protected]
I would love to speak to either people on the movement, entrepreneurs or anyone who think they may have something to add to the community.
Check out my Youtube channel for this.
