My name is Mikael Aberra Gobeze, i'm 18 years old and i'm born in Sweden. I have no heritage from Sweden, my mother moved here from Sri Lanka when she was about 21 years old. She met my biological father here in Gothenburg, but he's half Spanish and half Ethiopian. I didn't grow up with my father, so it was only me and my mother.

The fact that my father left me and my mother when i was only 9 months old has made me the person I am today. I'm always trying to become the best. It may sound very naive, but i see no reason in NOT dreaming big.

I got my first camera when i was 11. An old retro camera, and ever since i've been in love. I've been working a lot with models just to get in to the bussiness. But my dream is really create beautiful things. Things that will make people notice more across the world. When i've done that, i want to make sure my pictures will change opinions and really help people.

I'm very good with traveling, I'm extremely comfortable with new people, and most of all, I will always give 200 % if not more. I have physical problems, still very young and very motivated as well. This chance, would only be the very beginning of something great. I promise that!
