All of us have arrived to this moment by traveling a different story. Our road’s narrative has been full of forks, twists and turns, shaped intrinsically and extrinsically, by us, by them, by you and me, by chance encounters, experience, feelings, and time. But it isn’t just a tale; it is the very world we live in, inside our head, and as much as we can let others in, they will always see it with a different set of eyes. Our stories might be mundane or extraordinary, but none is like the other, which makes every single life utterly intriguing.

a glimpse
glimpse: FAMILY PORTRAIT | Since I started my slow voyage around the world it's been difficult to assemble a family portrait. Home hasn’t seen me in more than 5 years and our moments together have become few. Fortunately they visit me and this overhanging mirror in Marseille was the perfect opportunity to snap a shot of my parents, my sister and myself framed by candor and spontaneity. They know it's my love for the world that made me set out, and that it will be my love for them that will bring me home in the end.
