Wanderer's Journeys

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

USA | Monday, July 8, 2013 | 5 photos

I was born in Dawei, a small town in the southern part of Myanmar, and grew up in the old capital city, Yangon. It was in 2006 I discovered my passion for photography while being a medical student. In August 2008, I dropped out of medical school to study photography in the States. It was a life-changing experience and the best decision I have ever made in my life. I relocated to New York City in 2011 and currently working as a retoucher in a media but my passion remains strongly in traveling and photography which I found as symbols of freedom truly enriching my soul. I have realized the core need of my living spirit is my yelling for adventures and it's no greater joy than to encounter with new experiences and different horizons. The more I travel, the more I feel alive and I wish I could have this dream job traveling around the globe by doing the job I love the most, photographing. I have been searching long for such kind of opportunities and finally found WorldNomads that could hold a chance to make my dream come true. Traveling to Greenland is more than I could ask as once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and If I were chosen, I will make sure you will have no disappointment.
