In episode six, Stockholm-based director Per-Hampus Stålhandske shares his story along with insights into how he manages to seek and find rhythm in his personal life amidst demanding travel jobs.

Most people in our industry know the challenges of intensive travel jobs and travel schedules, but as a culture of filmmakers, we rarely talk about the real-life impacts that it can have on our personal wellness and further, our home lives.

Having lived through extensive burnout myself, my curiosity for this conversation comes from a place of eagerness to learn how filmmakers who are working at the peak of their craft manage to find ways to find rhythm in their lives amidst travel work.

Thankfully Per was kind enough to open up and share his story along with some insights about the relationship between his work and personal life.

If this general topic is of interest to you, it’s one that finds a way to pop up in the Variable community almost weekly in our events. Everyone seems curious about how others manage travel work and their own personal lives outside of work. All I can really say about the topic from my perspective is that the more the curtain is pulled back on this idea of rhythm or ‘balance’, the more I come to realize that nobody really has it figured out. All we can really do as a community is open up, share our experiences, and form our best conclusions. As passionate filmmakers, There is no easy answer.
