My Scholarship entry - Honoring Ancient Cultures & Respecting Sacred Land

Guatemala | Monday, November 24, 2014 | 5 photos

My name is Chanel Baran. I am a young 23 year old Visionary Photographic Artist, Peaceful Warrior, World Traveler and Positivity Ambassador. My passions in life are travelling, photography, igniting happiness, spreading joy, helping people connect with their heart and spreading the words of peace, respect and love for each other and our Earth. When I travel I take people on photographic journeys of my life. Through my images I aim to inspire, spread awareness and to uplift. I aim to help awaken the human consciousness on this planet and to help people to connect to their hearts, dreams, passions and the Earth. To help people realize that ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. Water is life. I am aware of the destruction and pollution of the Amazon Rain Forest from oil companies wanting short term gains. The Amazon is the lungs for the world and we need to protect this ancient forest. It would be an absolutely dream come true to embark on this journey with Jason Edwards. To experience the Amazon, to be side by side learning from Jason, to be immersed and surrounded with so much life, to be able to document this lush ecosystem. May this journey help wake up humanity and preserve the Amazon.
