Finally... from the desert to the mountains

Travel can be meditative – an experience without an end goal, undertaken for its' own sake. For a photographer, the journey itself becomes the subject. If you keep your eyes and mind open, the camera helps you capture some of the magic and the serendipity you encounter along the way.

This is one of hopefully a series of video diaries from my journeys around Peru. They’re as much for me, to remember and to stay sane during these times, as they are for you - everyone who wants to travel with me via the imagery and the sounds.

I’m playing with various ways of communicating visually. I wanted this video to feel like you’re really there with me through my journey. Parts of it really focus on the feeling, rather than conventional story-telling. So, do come with me on a journey through one of the roughest, but most beautiful parts of the world.
