January 10th 2016 4.25PM [Up in the air] ” I am exhausted! I worked nonstop in Hong Kong for the last 4 days, sleeping 4 hours per night; my brain is fried and writing is not coming easy. But I am so so so excited about the next few weeks! After a long wait, I’m finally on my way to Hanoi, Vietnam! I loved Hong Kong and i am so happy about all the adventures I lived and the lives i crossed path with, but I am ready to spend some time in a less-high-pace/less-crazy-packed environment! I’ve been working like a maniac these last few months and I think my mind needs to disconnect a bit from everything, from work and the fashion photography world especially. I don’t know what it is but I’ve been feeling like something is missing lately. So many questions keep popping into my head “Who are you really?” “Are you doing the right thing right now?” “Do you really want to pursue this quest?” “Do you still want to be a fashion photographer?”

I’m already in love! Everything looks like nothing I’ve seen before. I love the restaurants’ little tables and plastic stools out in the streets. The colors of the food. The intimidating stream of scooters and bikes you need to throw yourself at to cross the street. The strong coffee dripping into condensed milk and the tangled power lines… People are so kind here, they look very happy. Everything around is a perfect picture. Speaking of that, I got a few good shots today, I have a feeling it won’t be hard to find Beauty here, please be good to me Vietnam! “ onnect a bit from everything, from work and the fashion photography world especially.

January 13th 2016, 11.30 PM [On a boat in Halong Bay] “I’m in the middle of Magic right now! On a tiny old boat, cruising around the countless little islands of Halong Bay in the dark night. Around us just silence and darkness, it feels wrong to talk, it would be likebraking a spell or disrespecting the ancient gods hidden in the water and on the trees of the islands. Words can’t really describe the daunting beauty of this moment. Only the stars are missing but the clouds are about to open up. I feel like I’m inside an episode of LOST right now…to be honest, i never felt more lost myself. I feel different. Something is changing… what are you doing to me Vietnam? “ [ SIDENOTE to ruin the romance for all of you, while I was thinking all this poetical stuff I was incredibly sea sick and about to vomit but I didn’t let that stop me from feeling philosophical lol ]
January 25th 2016 – Hoi An [bench in a temple] I’m sitting in a temple in the heart of this ancient town by the water in central Vietnam. I’m so happy to spend the next few days in such a pretty place. It’s so peaceful here! Everything in Vietnam seems to make you feel calm…I wish I had a little more time here. I am not entirely sure I’m ready to go home… I have enough good shots for the project , technically my job is done and I could take the next few days off and just enjoy Hoi An, but i feel like there’s so much more to capture, so many more stories to tell. There are so many strong women in this country. Lyn, the owner of the small hotel I’m staying at, is one of them. She is such a nice person, so kind and helpful and so damn genuine. She shines light and love from every angle. She used to work for a hotel and now she opened her own and manages it with her sister. They both work very hard and they are both so genuinely nice! I admire Lyn, she’s a dreamer, just like me. [NOTE FROM THE FUTURE I regret so much not taking her and her sister’s picture! I never felt this calm and serene in my life, i think I am starting to understand what’s changing in me… i think I’ve been looking at life all wrong for the last few years!
