Mexico Travel 2010
I traveled to Mexico in 2010 with friend Mimi Tasevska on a photographic workshop that veteran photographer Harvey Stein directed. There is a contrast of urban and rural settings documented. I enjoyed a traditional native dance as well as a religious festival which is in virtue an authentic Christian expression of faith. In a small area of space, there is deep roots of different points of view.

Europe Travel 2010
Including: France, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Norway
I lived for a month with my mother in a beautiful apartment in a prime location in Paris, accessible to traditional cafes and walking distance to the Louvre. Especially memorable is walking the streets of Paris and taking portraits of authentic Parisians. I continued in the summer of 2010, and journeyed on my own throughout Europe.
