When I'm not holding a pen, I'm backpacking, looking for special places that I love telling about. I walk as far as I can, because it's the only way to be completely immersed in my surroundings. I travel, take pictures and have learned a lot in a state of happy solitude. Writing allows me to extend my journeys and add new stops, whilst taking photographs captures unforgettable moments.
