My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Burkina Faso | Thursday, July 4, 2013 | 5 photos

I grow up with an analog camera in my hands.
My dad passed down to me his passion and by now I love shooting with my digital camera.
I'm 26 years old and I've studied International Relations because I can't imagine living the whole life in the same place. In the last few years I just spent all the money earned for travelling in different places.
At the same time, I think using my camera is the main reason why I love travelling all around the world.
I grow up in Italy but I spent long time in Belgium, England and US, for studying and working. In the foreign countries I love just walking by my self, trying to capture an expression, a landscape, a building never seen before.
I spent two months of my life in Burkina Faso working as a volunteer , teaching school subjects to young students and here I discover I love shooting non just people but also, and above all, landscape.
afterwards I exposed my picture for a fundraising occasion.
Being involved in this Travel Photography scolarship would be a dream, the perfect occasion to discover an amazing place where I've never been before and maybe the biggest challenge of my life.
