Narrative:

After landing at sjc on runway 30L, I exited the runway to the left at taxiway G. After being cleared to the FBO, I inadvertently turned left on runway 29. After realizing that we were on the runway, we were about to contact ground control, but they contacted us first to inform us of our wrong turn. The runway was not active nor were there any other aircraft on the runway. Supplemental information from acn 457912: given clearance to taxi to FBO, cross runway 29, and taxi to ramp. Instead, PF made a left turn onto runway 29 and taxied for a short time on that runway before transitioning to taxiway. I was finishing paperwork and should have made sure before doing other things.
