A Journey across Pakistan

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Pakistan | Monday, January 14, 2013 | 5 photos

Every moment in time which will never be replicated in life is worth saving.

Being a son of a travel lover I experienced the excitement of exploration at very early age. The grandeur of every moment is huge when you find the originality of it. Keeping this in mind, wherever I went, I opened my eye of first time explorer and ended up finding more beautiful things in it.

This year during my multimedia art studies I decided that I want to start a career in wildlife and travel photography. So I packed my rucksack and took the next train to an unknown station. In 2 months I reached Karachi visiting around 10 cities, exploring and saving them in my photographs. After travelling through whole country I realized that my thirst to explore doesn't end but is more quenching as I continue to travel.

When I started researching about the field I came to know that while living in Pakistan it is impossible to find a career in this field due to lack of opportunities. When I found out about this scholarship it gave me hope that I might get a head start somewhere. This opportunity has kept me motivated to keep trying and maybe my passion can turn into experience someday.
