“It took me a long time to realize how small and insignificant my life is in this vast universe, so instead of trying my hardest to change it, I decided that I wanted it to change me. All of these photos shown are taken from my trip to Morocco and Vietnam in late 2022 with National Geographic Expeditions and G Adventures. Although I wanted to get insight into more personal stories of the locals of each and every village and city, what I have been able to learn is already worth much more than what I had expected. I want to keep learning about our world, the history, and the experience of others, and their stories, and that is something I want to share with others to remember as well.”
