South Africa, a beautiful beginning to my wordly adventure.

South Africa | Saturday, July 6, 2013 | 5 photos


I am a 20 year old male, and I am from Vancouver, BC.

The first 8 years of my life were joyous and adventurous, but after a divorce and lots of fighting, I moved out at 15 years old to make it on my own.

I was lost, and led astray, and at one point I ended up in the complete wrong direction, walking alongside the wrong people. I was angry, bitter, confused, and terribly unhappy. I dropped out of school, and did nothing with my time. Everything felt wrong, and I so badly desired to be a good person and lead a good life.

I have always had an innate tendency towards doing good, so it was just a matter of time until I got back on track. Who I am was buried under years of stress and negativity, so I grabbed a shovel, and started digging. In three years I changed my life, I sought out help, did a little therapy, graduated highschool, made some great friends, worked two jobs for a year to save up, and took off.

I spent two months in Cape Town, and now I am in Australia! I'm just going wherever I go, and taking pictures of everything along the way. I've been a hobbyist photographer for a long time now, and I would love to go to Greenland! Nat Geo is my dream job.
