Thoughtful Dane is a blog where Frederik Jensen blogs about game design, travel and photography. Frederik Jensen is a Dane living in Sweden since 2011.
Game design
I enjoy playing and designing games - boardgames as well as tabletop roleplaying games or story games as I call them when there is no game master. My favourite games are set in a historical setting. I believe in playing games in a shared physical space and with physical components as a great way of getting to know other people.

Thoughtful Games
Thoughtful Games is the company name and brand under which I have self published games since 2009. For convenience I have merged content from thoughtfulgames.com into thoughtfuldane.com and the thoughtfulgames.com domain registration will expire in 2026.
Tours
I have explored Greater Stockholm since I moved here in 2017. I offer guided tours where I share the hidden treasures I have found.
Photography
I like the process of composing a shot. I edit afterwards but most of the magic happens when I search out the motive and move around to find the optimal angle and wait for the sun to come out or the objects to move to where I want them. When I'm composing I'm "in the zone" and I love it.
The pictures I use on this blog are almost exclusively my own and are copyright Frederik Jensen. If you want to use my photos, please get in touch.
