Young in Israel

My Scholarship entry - Young In Israel

Israel | Wednesday, November 12, 2014 | 5 photos

Born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, with portuguese citizenship and living in Edinburgh: this is a short sentence that could explain what photography is to me. Multiplicity. I've always known what I wanted to do for life: capture interesting stories and share them with the world. Therefor I have my commitment with photography. What I love about this field is how full of life it is and I can say with my mouth full: I love to live. But I know that it can be a very difficult career to pursue, therefor I don't mind working with any other profession if I keep in mind my goals. I'm determined, passionate, creative, easygoing, but I can be very stubborn as well. I get excited about things, about changes, about the new. I guess this is why since I am 18 years old - when I got my first job - all the money that I've been making always goes to travels. Today I am 24 years old and I am proud to say: I am 100% independent from my parents. The finest thing about traveling is that the more you travel the more you meet people and get to understand how different everyone is and I believe that the more you realize this, the better you know who you are. Me: Not made for settling down.
