My Scholarship entry - Dong Xuan night market

Vietnam | Saturday, January 12, 2013 | 5 photos

In Highschool, I studied in Mathematics class. And when I got into university, my major was Computer Engineering. But now, none of my friends believe I am doing photography.

I started taking photographs seriously 2 years ago, one year after I quit the university. The desire of exploring culture and life motivated me to leave the computer, pick up my backpack and go. Photography has been my travelmate since then. Though I haven’t been to many places, the photos help me keep lots of stories and feelings that I can share after each trip. I walked around the old citadel in Hue city, I talked with an elephant trainer, I greeted New Year 2013 with foreign friends… The camera was there with me all that time.

This opportunity to go to Oman is my first opportunity to go abroad, and also my first opportunity to work with professional photographers. A new trip means new photos, new stories and new experiences. I am eager to go, to see, to smell, to taste, to feel… and above all - to live.
