Hi,
My name is Pavel Prasivka and I was born in Brno (Czech Republic). I grew up in nearby small village in the south part of the country. Thus, strictly speaking, in the the gamekeeper house situated in the middle of the forest, so I was very close to the nature.
After graduating from Secondary Forestry School I started to study at Mendel University in Brno, branch Forestry. In 2011 I successfully graduated and now I start with my second favourite hobby, traveling. With the traveling I have already began at age 15, when I first went to Corsica, where I later frequently returned. In 18 years, I started working in a travel agency as a mountain guide. And travelling is now all my live.
Why should I be chosen?
I have already seen the most amazing places in the world, but unfortunatelly, I didn't made the most amazing pictures of them. There is many people around the world with fancy equipment which are making nice pictures, but I want to go further and move my pictures to different level. I want to capture scenes and stories which are normally hidden to the other people. Its been always my dream to show what I have seen through my camera and be a photographer travelling around the World.
