A waterfall begins with just one drop... https://journals.worldnomads.com/seth_monk/ Mon, 6 Apr 2026 03:43:39 GMT World Nomads Adventures Hi! My name is Seth and I am a 31 year old Buddhist monk from Boston. After graduating art school in 2005 I traveled to Germany where I ordained a monk and spent 8 years learning meditation, Buddhist philosophy, and developing the wish to be a force of good in the world. I recently spent 6 months in India where I re-realized the great joy of documenting powerful moments and places through photography. I am deeply interested and intrigued by your offer. The purity and richness of the Rain Forest has held a special place in my heart since childhood and I also have had a long standing wish to visit Peru and contact the ancient cultures there. The chance to photograph these people and places sounds like a life-changing experience. I am especially moved that you will be traveling to places where conservations efforts are being raised. I always feel quite helpless in the face of the destruction of such beautiful and important places and this would be a chance for me to really lend a helping hand and to use photography as a way to share the message with the rest of world. It feels like a very important assignment. I would be honored (and thrilled) to be chosen to join and to hone my craft. https://journals.worldnomads.com/seth_monk/photos/50990/India/My-Scholarship-entry-Tibetan-Monks-of-India Travel India seth_monk https://journals.worldnomads.com/seth_monk/photos/50990/India/My-Scholarship-entry-Tibetan-Monks-of-India#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/seth_monk/photos/50990/India/My-Scholarship-entry-Tibetan-Monks-of-India Tue, 18 Nov 2014 15:39:00 GMT 0
