The journeys I undertake are, above all, for myself—to satisfy my curiosity and quench my thirst for knowledge about the vast world out there. During these travels, I never want to feel pressured to create content, whether written or visual, for sponsors or anyone else. My true intention is to experience countries, cultures, and people as authentically as possible. In the most beautiful moments, which often arise from openness and trust, my priority is always to savor the experience in the present, to etch it into my memory for eternity rather than interrupt it just to capture it on paper.
