“Not all those who wander are lost.” – J. R. R. Tolkien
I really miss the darkroom ! I was born January 8th somewhere, and then grew up. Trying to figure out the world… I am currently engaged in a freelance job, Creative Direction / Graphic Design & Professional Landscape photography In April 2012 I decided to embark on a new trip to Asia, a new place to me. Here I have encountered different flavors( spice food whao), new people, new thinking, new ideas i want to explore and talk, to make new friends and new partners, but above all to truly understand others and to be understood.I have been traveling as much as is possible you know… ( i am talking about my budget i am not rich ), thus enabling me to have the opportunity to know new cultures, people, places and languages so happy for that.
I have always believed in the power of the communication.
