In Adventures, I share short articles from my expeditions across Europe and Asia, including Italy, the Czech Republic, Japan, and Vietnam. Each location is different, but they all have one thing in common: something happened there.
Metal detecting is always part of it. But it's not just about what I find. It's about understanding the place, its history, and the stories connected to it.

The full experience, including the actual search, locations, and real moments, is available in my videos.
