One World Different Views

My Scholarship entry - Paradise Island

Mauritius | Friday, November 14, 2014 | 5 photos

I am a very passionate and energetic individual with the vision of travelling the world. I am an explorer who loves to capture the world through a lens. In an interview I gave to one of the newspapers in Uganda, I said "no matter the country I go to, I will always carry a lens and capture the world. That is my passion". One of my friends in Mauritius gave me the nickname 'tourist' because of this quality.

I started my page on Facebook, "One World Different Views" with the vision of showing the world to the world with a different, more so positive view. I also wish to raise the bars for my photography project called "whispers of the soul" which focuses on reflecting the deepest voices buried within people.

This scholarship opportunity means a lot to me. Not only does it give me the opportunity to visit and explore a new country and capture it, it also allows me the opportunity to improve my photography due to the mentoring of a professional photographer as Jason Edwards. There is plenty I would like to learn from him during these 12 days.

I dream of travelling day in & day out and this will be an experience, I shall carry with me till my last breath. I already look forward to it.
