From Sea to Summit

My Scholarship entry - Aotearoa- in all its facets

New Zealand | Tuesday, October 28, 2014 | 5 photos

Dear ladies and gentlemen!
My name is Ina Koester, I am 24 years old and I am from Germany. I study Sport Management and Communication. At the moment I am spending a semestre in New Zealand though. Last night I had dinner with some friends I made here and we were talking about our dream jobs. I told them that my degree I am doing in Germany is probably not what wll do and that it would be my dream to be a travelling photographer and being able to see beautiful things and give other people the chance to see it too through my photos. The course I do here is called Outdoor Education. I had the chance to see some amazing nature through this course and always thought" I want my friends and family to see it too. But how can I take a photo that will transfer the goosebumps I am having right now??". I just started photography, but I am trying to improve and learn contanstly and see this scholarship as an amazing chance for me to combine my two loves to travelling and photography and maybe even be able to find out whether I could make my hobby into something that will pay my billy one day.
Many thanks!
Ina Koester
