ABOUT ME

Kurt Photo Amsterdam

I’m a husband, dad, and newly minted pilot figuring out expat life with my family in Amsterdam, NL. On any given weekend, you’ll find us at the park, wandering a rainy market in search of Dutch cheese and stroopwafels, or waiting at Schiphol for our next adventure. This is our journey of building a new kind of American Dream — one flight, one story, and one rainy day at a time.
