CURRENT MISSION

Become a Doctor! & Photograph People from Every Country in the Americas

ABOUT ME

Meet & Photograph people from all 35 countries that make up the Americas. That has been my mission for the last few years. My count is up to 21 countries now with over 25,000 photos taken and hundreds of people met.

The people in places like Guatemala, Peru, Bolivia and Guyana taught me that there are even bigger adventures out there, Aventures that try to take on some of the biggest problems facing the globe, Adventures that are not only fun but can have real positive impacts in the lives of individuals and communities.

So this is my new mission to find the place where incredible adventures intersect with the opportunity to positively impact the world! :)

So right now I am following the pre-medicine route but honestly I don't know exactly how this is going to turn out. But at least I know I still have a camera and 14 more countries to go!

I take pictures of people in love. http://photobychriswalter.com

PHILOSOPHY

DO. something. Action is more important than planning. Identify your fears and immerse yourself in them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had some amazing experiences in South America during my last trip. Especially in Caracas where I had 10 days to burn which I thought was going to be a nightmare but because of the people I met through couch surfing Caracas now holds some of my best memories from the whole trip!
