Children in Ethiopia https://journals.worldnomads.com/alstart12/ Fri, 10 Apr 2026 21:55:46 GMT World Nomads Adventures My name is Alina. I have been traveling on my own and taking pictures for almost half of my life. I came to the States from Poland with just backpack, and some money in my wallet wanting to visit many places. Little did I know, 9 years later I'll be still living in America, carving fun, beautiful life for myself. And this is who I am. I work hard, I am open minded, stubborn, and grateful for everything I have. That is due to my travels that humbled me, and taught me to appreciate, not to expect.I wouldn't be who I am if not for my determination. I have a small dog walking business that coupled with photography are my favorite "job". I walk around NYC with my canine pack, scouting interesting locations, noticing people and capturing them with my camera. When I am not walking I ride my old, rusty bike venturing around NYC. I consider my self free spirited, strong, independent woman who lives to travel. I would make a great candidate for this fantastic scholarship because I am very easy going, adaptable, eager to learn, I love going foreign places, where I can hide behind a camera and absorb different cultures, and I have passion for meeting and helping people, and animals. https://journals.worldnomads.com/alstart12/photos/38121/Ethiopia/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Travel Ethiopia alstart12 https://journals.worldnomads.com/alstart12/photos/38121/Ethiopia/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/alstart12/photos/38121/Ethiopia/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Sat, 12 Jan 2013 13:31:00 GMT 0
