Jesper Rosenberg is born in Copenhagen, Denmark (1975) and has ventured around the world for more than 30 years. Not because a job paid him or he had loads of money and sponsors didn't sent him around the world either. He traveled for passion, curiosity, guts and on a low budget.
In 2004 Jesper became a Padi Scuba Instructor. He has been scuba diving in ice cold water, tropical seas, on World War II wrecks and in fast currents around the world.
December 26th 2004 Jesper was in Thailand on Phi Phi Island and witnessed The South Asian Tsunami wash away the island.
In the beginning of 2007 he bought a 44 foot sailboat in Florida with the only knowledge that a boat should float. Learning by doing Jesper circumnavigated the Caribbean Sea for 5 years with various friends and has crossed the Atlantic Ocean in 2012 starting in Panama, through Turks & Caicos, The Azores, ending in Spain.
In 1989 Jesper began skateboarding and skateboarded around the world for many years. Once a skateboarder, always a skateboarder.
Jesper has anticipated in several running competions and completed 6 marathons and two ultra marathons.
Personal best was 2:52:40 at Zaltbommel Two Rivers Marathon, 10th out of 309, March 2023.
