Corrinne's Travel Ramblings “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Cuba | Wednesday, January 9, 2013 | 4 photos

I am 36 years old from Melbourne, from a very young age, I have traveled to many countries with my family. Being exposed to different cultures and places at a young age definitely sparked my curiosity, my passion to discover and to look at things differently

As an adult, the passion to discover grew even stronger and I have embarked on many solo journeys in Europe, Asia & South America. In the last 4 years since taking up photography seriously and studied for 1 year in a photography school, photography has changed me. Photography is no longer just a companion on my travels, it has enhanced my travels and my daily life by teaching me to see things differently, to see the beauty of a benign and seemingly normal scene, to slow down and look, to feel and anticipate and to appreciate. It has enriched my traveling experience in so many ways. I always feel like I am still a child looking at the world with curiosity when I am behind my camera.

Travel and photography will always be my passion and it is through traveling and photography that I feel I am the most true to myself. Learning is a never-ending journey and what better opportunity than this to learn and appreciate?
