My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Malaysia | Monday, January 14, 2013 | 5 photos

Why do we travel - To discover ourselves, to open our hearts, to experience the unknown and to enjoy freedom.

Being from an Army background, I have always shunted from one place to another since childhood. Nobody liked it - I LOVED it!
I loved the idea of going to a new place, meeting new people, making new friends. Since then, I have wanted to explore all the domains of travel - WHY do people travel, WHICH destinations they prefer, WHAT do they want to see, HOW do they travel etc etc. To answer all these questions, I decided to pursue a course in Travel and Tourism and am currently working for a travel company wherein I design holidays for people travelling abroad from India.

What do photographs signify - A capture of a moment, a reflection of you, a memoir of a time and so much more.

In my line of work I need to know places where even I haven’t been to, to show others what maybe even I haven’t seen. I have learnt that a picture can say a thousand words and a good photographer can take a person on a visual journey like no other. Photography to me is not just a hobby but a passion. My aim is to click photographs which can make a person dream, want, visualize and feel.
