My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Spain | Monday, January 14, 2013 | 4 photos

I'm a Spanish journalist willing to take part in the selection process of a Oman Travel Photography Scholarship.

I graduated in Journalism and I specialized in international Journalism, two areas I think suits perfectly to the grant I have seen on the web.

I have been working as journalist since I graduated, that is to say, already more than six years apart from some traineeships. My work experience is focus on mass media (both national and international; with many contributions as freelance, what probes my ability to work utonomously) and on international organizations as well as NGOs.

I am trying to combine both text and pictures, what so far I could have done it only a few times. That is to say, I get paid for my texts but only a couple of times did I received money for the pictures I try to take in all my trips. With this National Geographic Opportunity I dream to be a complete (photo)journalist in the future, able to send illustrated text from anywhere.

Just to say a few words more about myself, I consider I am curious, with good social skills and also open-minded, hard worker and flexible. And without any doubt, I am passionate about journalism and photography.
