A Traveller

Mobile Photo by JCEvangelio 2008

I need a map, a map? a MAP! Just like the famous “DORA The Explorer”, I always love to be with my backpack and wished to conquer the wonders of the world. From ridge to reefs, from the highest peak down to the deep. Travelling is not merely for fun, relaxing and feeling free but it can give us the opportunity to uncover the world's hidden destinations. Even as an innocent child, it is something that I always wanted to do, getting rid of my itchy feet! At my early age of 6, my parents already entrusted me to travel with my cousins from the Central Philippines (Visayas) to the Southern Island (Mindanao). I am always fascinated to ride a bus and cross the oceans with the ferry boat. My favorite spot will always be close the window so I can view the wonderful sceneries along the way and just simply observe what's going on in every place.This experience made me long for more adventures. Along with this, as I grow older, was the realization of capturing every road, moments and destination through photographs, for this documents a journey of our lives that we can look back together with our kids and more with our grandchildren. For me, it is a significant tool to turn back time. As an Asian drama quoted, "The magic that can stop time for a moment is through photography. Photographs take an instant and transform it into everlasting". This inspires me to do every single chance it takes. So every journey is worth exploring and preserving. As The North Face's famous slogan says "NEVER STOP EXPLORING". 

And for this, let me take you to some places in the world where I took some stops along the cross roads and feel the breeze of every moment. The places I've been.

Note to readers: More Photos will be posted soon under the Label "Places"
