Patrick Westoo

Patrick Westöö is obsessed with untouched old growth forests. He came to Rwanda in 2023 to add an African chapter to the book he is writing — about the human relationship with wilderness and the politics of it. He is now dreaming about coming back to our region to add Uganda’s Rwenzoris. When not globetrotting, Patrick works in the tech industry of Stockholm, Sweden. [bio updated: 2026-05]
