I am leaving for Cambodia in four days and have been waiting for this since January but, hard to believe it's actually here and truly happening. There have been freakout moments not lasting long though. I am ready, excited and hope to do some good at a children's hospital where work awaits.
Another hope is to create lasting photographs and being a human-interest photographer the task is to make people see what's happening out there, to induce more people to scare the shit out of themselves and travel.
I don't want to be locked inside a box for it's time to think outside of that. The goal is to really see what's happening out there in the real, the other, world. People of my parent’s generation are vital and alive today . . . they've seen changes . . . seen things come and go, but, when will they get tired of watching it unfold on a television screen?
This is a fortunate opportunity to go to cambodia. and the three months spent there, living every moment, enjoying each breath of it, will be amazing and unforgettable. But right now, it is time for packing the suitcases.
