Experiences
Book with the enterprise itself — a morning on a farm, a table in the field, a week in one landscape.
Sign up for Charlie's Field Notes, get your code and book direct: every booking made with it makes visible what actually reaches the land.
At the booking you decide what to do with your 5% — take it off, or leave it with the enterprise supporting land regeneration.

People
Podcast
The people rebuilding soil, landscape and the way we travel — and what it actually costs them.
Take it into your own life, into your own work, and into the systems we’re trying to shift.
We also work with some of these people through Fjällgås.Agency, the other half of what I do — and we offer more inspiration on regeneration with the Regeneration Starter Kit.

Long conversations with the people doing the work — recorded where they do it, and published in series.

Field Guide Charlie
A field guide helps you find and identify the living things in a landscape — here I do the same with places: the regenerative farms and rewilding sites of Europe, and the hosts and operators genuinely supporting them.
– The map identifies places to visit.
– The experiences tell you what you can do at these places.
– The podcast identifies people to learn from and with.
– The Field Notes explore our seasonal learnings and upcoming plans.
I’m Charles — a qualified field guide. After two decades working in the safari industry in Africa, running an entrepreneurship incubator in Sweden and walking the talk with farmers, tour operators and accommodations through my regenerative entrepreneurship consultancy, it is time to bring it all together under Field Guide Charlie: putting the land stewards and the places they long-term improve in the spotlight.
Vision: tourism and hospitality enterprises directly supporting thriving regenerative farmers, biodiversity and communities, within our planetary boundaries.
The offer: a map, free to browse, not for sale, land steward focussed. Stories, made with the people doing the work, not about them. Experiences you can book directly.
The point is that attention and money reach the land stewards who are regenerating their places long-term — and that regeneration becomes somewhere you’ve been, rather than something you’ve read about.
Are you ready to get your boots dirty?
See you in the field one day!
