CURRENT MISSION Improving peace in the world with photographic project ABOUT ME Free lance photographer, I create my own project and I do it. It's the reason why I travel so much. But I travel also because I like to discover different way of life, different people, different atmosphere, different smell and taste... All what make the world so wonderful. I'm traveling since summer 2009 and I will probably stop for a while in summer 2014. But I still enjoy it and I'm not bored :-) People said I laugh a lot and loud (it's right) I never stay more than one week somewhere (it's wrong, sometime I stay 2) and I love spontaneity (it's right as well). I love what I don't know If you want to know more there is this my website : http://www.antoine-photos.com PHILOSOPHY I will put some quotes about travel, it gonna be easier. âA journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles.â - Tim Cahill âA journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it.â - John Steinbeck âThe first condition of understanding a foreign country is to smell it." - Rudyard Kipling "Discovery consists not in seeking new lands but in seeing with new eyes" - Marcel Proust
