A storyteller https://journals.worldnomads.com/lolagomez/ Thu, 9 Apr 2026 17:05:04 GMT World Nomads Adventures I started the most wonderful journey when I decided to move to Daytona Beach, FL to enroll in a photography program in 2011. Since then I do not know my right hand without a camera and my left hand without a lens. I want to be a photojournalist for National Geographic. It is my life’s goal. I look to develop stories and create images in an artistic way with new perspectives. I feel the urgency to experience all the possible ways people live in different countries, and be one of them for a while to document their stories through images. I am very hopeful for opportunities like this one to gain experience to become a professional photographer. I am eager to learn and a hard-worker. Having a chance at this scholarship will give me the edge I need to raise to the next level. I will learn from every person involved in this assignment, especially from Jason Edwards. I will be watching his every move to learn from him as much as possible. The bottom of line is that I consider myself a citizen of the world and a storyteller. I want to document life around the planet with my camera for a living. I do not see any other possible future for me than through photography. https://journals.worldnomads.com/lolagomez/photos/42697/USA/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Travel USA lolagomez https://journals.worldnomads.com/lolagomez/photos/42697/USA/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/lolagomez/photos/42697/USA/My-Scholarship-entry-A-place-I-have-visited Wed, 3 Jul 2013 23:20:00 GMT 0
