Every evening Maximino goes out into Las Peñitas sea in the search for food... for him and his family https://journals.worldnomads.com/lacuchara/ Thu, 9 Apr 2026 05:24:43 GMT World Nomads Adventures I’m 35 years old and approximately two years of having fallen in love with photography, I mean, I'm a late lover of this art. I'm from Costa Rica but I currently live and study in Mexico, why? because the world is very big and my bubble was small; I always wanted to experience life in another country and I have always loved to travel whenever I can, but living a long time outside of Costa Rica I had never done before. Living in Mexico has greatly encouraged my passion for photography, on one hand, because this is a very photogenic country, full of colors, textures and contrasts, and on the other hand, because I have a bad memory and photo is the way in which I document my life here and guarantee I’ll remember it faithfully in the future. I am a psychologist by profession, and now I’m studying Environmental Psychology, perhaps from there arises my interest to know places, people, environments and cultures. May be for the same reason I have sensibility to see and capture details that are insignificant to other people. I believe that it is exactly those details what makes me possible to communicate my vision of the world through a photograph, and to take people to places and situations that they could not know by any other way. Well, I am responsible when it is necessary, but also know how to have fun and relax when the time is right; at the end, life is short and when it comes to an end I would like to be remembered by the moments that I lived and froze in a photo. https://journals.worldnomads.com/lacuchara/photos/29872/Mexico/My-Photo-scholarship-2011-entry Travel Mexico lacuchara https://journals.worldnomads.com/lacuchara/photos/29872/Mexico/My-Photo-scholarship-2011-entry#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/lacuchara/photos/29872/Mexico/My-Photo-scholarship-2011-entry Thu, 8 Sep 2011 00:17:43 GMT 0 Every evening Maximino goes out into Las Peñitas sea in the search for food... for him and his family https://journals.worldnomads.com/lacuchara/photos/29861/Mexico/The-fisherman Travel Mexico lacuchara https://journals.worldnomads.com/lacuchara/photos/29861/Mexico/The-fisherman#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/lacuchara/photos/29861/Mexico/The-fisherman Wed, 7 Sep 2011 19:26:00 GMT 0
