My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Brazil | Monday, January 14, 2013 | flickr photos

Hi, my name is Daniele Rodrigues, I’m 21 and a journalism student. Photography to me is a way to stay near to people. I love to know new people, their histories and experiences. I learn a lot on each talk and I fell that a camera is like a magic instrument that makes me touch other worlds. Sometimes people get afraid of me with the camera, but they also have curiosity, so they want to see themselves in the picture, specially the children.
I’m brazilian and already traveled a lot in my country, so I think that being born in a so diverse country was important to make me love the different. I have interest in social themes, not to show poverty, but all the richness that exists in poor communities.
Now I am living for six months in Spain, studying in the University of Seville, and it has been so nice to explore the “old continent". This is an important opportunity to me, so I want to know all I can.
