My biggest passion is travel. Everywhere and always. I am ready to throw myself in the greatest adventure. But I was stop with traveling for a while cause I have a twin boys at home :). But I want to go back to travel because I feel the need for new impressions. Generally I travel alone, so this would be a great opportunity to enjoy with company. And the main conclusion as I have come to in my travel time - yes, it is cool to do it, but it is just for me. I want to bring benefits to society - to my city, country and to the whole world. I realized that I want to create a travel blog and travel photo exhibitions as well, where I share my experiences with the whole world. And there is no better way to create a picture of a place if not through the photos. I don't have a specific photographic skills, but I want to learn it from prominent personalities. I want to create photos that makes people to stop and think, photos that thrill, photos that makes laugh or cry. These are one of the main reasons why I want to participate in Travel Photography Scholarship.
About my photos. These are from Chefchaouen, Morocco. One of the most beautiful places I've visited. So here I present Chefchaouen photos, because I think they can feel the joy and happiness which I felt when I was there. Chefchaouene or Chaouen is a small town in Morocco's Rif mountains. It is remarkable that all the buildings are blue, so it is called the blue city of Morocco. Idea is that inhabitants feel like living in heaven, as the city is often in clouds as it is high in the mountains.
In photos are visible daily life in Chaouen. For me, a girl from Europe, it seemed like a colorful, unusual and full of miracles.
