New Year, New Experiences! https://journals.worldnomads.com/jaxfotos/ Sun, 26 Apr 2026 07:51:17 GMT World Nomads Adventures I’ve always loved to tell stories. Ever since I learned to read, I knew I wanted to tell stories of my own. I dreamed of becoming a journalist, and chose English as a major in University. However, after 3 years of study, I realized my love for photography was much more than a simple hobby. So I saved and invested in a dslr, studied photography online and created a Facebook page showcasing my photographs. I developed an extreme respect for travel photography. I discovered a picture, (as a medium) really is worth a 1000 words. So I have chosen to pursue photojournalism as a career. I see photography as an expressive language that has the power to change people’s perspectives, capture the essence of an event and unite people in difficult times. I hope to share different perspectives with my photography, provoke thought and discussion, and encourage change. I want to learn how to create visual stories that are compelling as well as captivating. So when I saw the commercial for the World Nomads Travel Scholarship it seemed like a stroke of fate. I have the passion and persistence to make my dreams a reality. It is with sincere gratitude I present my humble submission to the contest. https://journals.worldnomads.com/jaxfotos/photos/37922/Canada/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Travel Canada jaxfotos https://journals.worldnomads.com/jaxfotos/photos/37922/Canada/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/jaxfotos/photos/37922/Canada/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Fri, 11 Jan 2013 19:52:00 GMT 0 https://journals.worldnomads.com/jaxfotos/photos/37065/Canada/Misc Travel Canada jaxfotos https://journals.worldnomads.com/jaxfotos/photos/37065/Canada/Misc#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/jaxfotos/photos/37065/Canada/Misc Sat, 5 Jan 2013 15:22:00 GMT 0
