My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

Italy | Thursday, July 4, 2013 | 5 photos

I was born in Paracatu-BRA. A small town that I left with my family when I was three seeking for a better life in the capital.

Most of people fears changes; me, on the other hand, fear that they never happen. Maybe because of that I was always trying to change my life in some way. Soon I started Law school, and those changes took me to a lot of different places. Even changed the course of my studies, that will be about Social Comunication and Journalism, from the next year on.

I've always been in love with photography, a passion that, despite my will, I never really had the chance to develop, mainly because of the Law School. However, a few months ago I took a new path: sold my car and came to Europe to study, not only Law, but also languages. Here I could develop a bit my love
towards photography and also shoot more. What drives me to a better photo is this felling of freedom it gives me. This satisfaction. Some sort of anguish that only leaves my chest when I'm proud of the image I got.

If I could make my way through this world by photography, I'd go wherever it takes me. I'd be glad because I know then I can go wherever I want, whenever I want, by looking the job I've done.
