I had to work hard to find a lifestyle that suited me and allowed me to be happy. Not to play the violin, but I did not have much growing up as a kid the government often subsidized my clothes. We immortalize memories and create records of what is without question the best time of my life. But one constant that remains is the relationship I have with my camera. Throughout that time, I’ve met an unmeasurable number of people, of which only a handful will remain friends for life.

From subfreezing temperatures to tropical climates, I can’t count how many photos we have made together. At the time of writing, my camera and I have visited 13 countries, 33 cities, and four continents. The Fujifilm XT2 and the 35mm f2 were perfect travel companions: light, easy to transport, and compact enough to go unnoticed while making travel photographs. After traveling in 2018 (then a Nikon shooter), I made the decision to become a full-time nomad. In January 2019, I bought a one-way ticket to Sofia, Bulgaria. Enjoyment aside, the main reason I love this camera is because of the times we’ve shared together.
