Behind the Wrinkles: Tales Untold

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Egypt | Monday, January 14, 2013 | 5 photos

I'm a person who's foremost intrigued by uncovering the human side. The best part of my journalism studies was having access to meet new people from all walks of life, and hearing their stories.
Photography has also been one of the approaches that helped me break the ice between strangers and myself, and bringing us to closer grounds. Not only so, but it gives me a visual medium to store the memory, including the feel of both the place and the person.
I'm not much of a reader, but I'm someone who obtains some, if not most of her knowledge, first hand from the people. I'm someone who grows a little more mature, with a little wider horizon with every new conversation, especially those that lie outside my familiar comfort zone.
Hence, there's no better way to learn, grow, and explore than both travelling, and unveiling new cultures. The idea of being out there, somewhere I don't know, with people I don't know, really tickles my will to go the distance, and to capture photos that truly tell a story.

I quite hope you give me this chance.
Thank you
