‘We wander for distraction, but we travel for fulfilment’ Hilaire Belloc
Photography and travel
I keep going back to these landscapes from the Moroccan desert. when I took them in October 2007, I was in a constant state of flux. Migrating from Poland to the UK has been quite a cultural change for me, but there I was craving another adventure, wanting to see what’s behind the next corner. Welcome to the life of a migrant.
Travel is a beautiful thing to do, and privileged thing to do. While travelling, you have a feeling of being alive; you experience events that will make you humble and appreciative of life, events and cultural interactions that will challenge you and make grateful for all these learning opportunities. It’s a funny thing to say but, over the years, traveling kept me grounded, more mindful of the world and people around me, also inspired and focused on my passion for photography.
I think I also discovered the word ‘peripatetic’ when researching titles for my photography exhibition few years ago titled Transient.
