I love Travelling…fell in love with the “wandering” process. My heart goes thump thump with every step that I make to a new place. My eyes, my mind, my camera captures every sight that I see, every story that I live. The camera connects my vision with my feelings.

I grew up like this…I was travelling with my parents in our DIY motorhome since I was eight. We were sleeping in parking spaces, remote areas, parks and camping for months. We were experiencing everything away from home.

I love buildings, cities and people so I became an Architect. I studied Architecture in London at the AA, housing and building design for developing countries and stage design at RADA. Architecture gave me the strength to feel that I can still make the world a better place. I was always using travelling and photography to learn about the world, how places work and often how they don’t and to make it an accessible site for Architecture, for people to live happily in it.

I love people, listen to their stories, learn about their lives. Observing, talking, understanding is part of my social research for Architecture leading to design. Photography was helping me to keep up my research, taking it back home, studying it and that’s how it all began…

I started searching through my photo files, printing some of them at home and sticking them up on my house walls, my friends’ walls… I was thinking about my travels, the people that I have met and the things that I have learned. I have done a lot of research in the past through my travels that led me to a new form of creativity. I was immersed in Photography. I was working on my photos, showed them to professionals, submitted them to schools in London and started to study Travel Photography. I was studying my pictures , retelling their stories, finding their frame and context…I was travelling again.

I see photography as a natural extension of my passion for Architecture. I have won an International competition in China and a short list place award at National Geographic; and sharing all this online with the world, plus as much of my professional experience as I can muster, makes my soul sing…
