What Traveling Taught Me

Be Here, Now.

USA | Tuesday, 8 September 2015 | Views [246] | Scholarship Entry

I spent this past summer wandering the throughout Europe and the west coast, most of it was somewhat unplanned. It was a time of growing for me - I packed up my bags and moved to the west coast in hopes of getting connected with the film industry. I had no set job or internship and no friends to seek comfort in because I didn't know anyone. Trust me - it was one of the scariest things I've ever done but I was incredibly blessed by it.
I saw places I've never dreamed existed and was blown away by the beauty of the earth. I learned what it is like to live simply - only taking what I needed, and nothing more. I met some amazing human beings and made some unforgettable memories that will forever be burned in my mind. I was blown away by how much I had changed in 4 months, it was almost as if the unfamiliar landscape , strangers, and spontaneity had shaped me without my knowing.
I have an incredible passion for storytelling, traveling, creating, and spontaneous adventure. I want to create films that change people. Call me a dreamer, I don't care. I would be so honored to be mentored by Brian Rapsey and travel to Columbia.
