‘’We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us '' ....

Sounds like a cliche, but how many of us actually do it. I am a 25 year old, currently living in New Zealand. Yes I like to travel and Yes I do like to take a lot of photos, but there is so much more to it.

Firstly, TRAVEL. Until recently, I would travel for my own pleasure and satisfaction and not want to share a great deal of it with people I knew. However, over the years this has gradually changed, and I want people to understand why I love to do it and also to help them understand that it isn't a crime to break cultural norms to do what you love. I'm still a long way off, but I do hope that this blog will influence people in the way I want to... To help them understand that we all have adventure inside of us... We don't need to be mountain climbers or great explorers... all we need to experience the world and different people.

Secondly PHOTOGRAPHY, My photographs aren't of a professional but are attempts at capturing experiences, moments and places the way I felt I did at that particular time. It aims at capturing the beauty of the place from my perspective.

So let go of your prejudice, your ego , your misconceptions and learn to appreciate and accept others for who they are.

Cheers :)
