Why I Moved to Kenya
I am 29 years old, but my journey actually began when I was a toddler and facinated by animals. I used to annoy my parents to bring me to the zoo every single week. When we used to go I adored bringing my camera along on the journey. Within the timeframe of a few years my whole room was covered in wildlife images.
When I went to college I carried on studying art and photography, I made a decision not to go to university and alternativley got a job down the local sea life centre. The job I was in was outstanding, I was doing a job that I loved but somehow it did not feel like it was enough.
When I turned 25 I received the best gift ever from my parents, safari holidays were an up and coming trend, but to be honest I could have never afforded to go. Once I received my tickets I was absolutely ecstatic.
Once I arrived on my Kenya holidays I just felt that I belonged to be here. The feeling just got stronger and stronger and the more time I stayed there. Personally I did not want to return back home, I mean the weather was better, the people were nicer and I could take advantage of my photography. So do you realise what? I decided not to return back, I have now spent 5 happy years in Kenya and although I do miss my family and friends there is no way that I would ever return back.
I was brought into this world to be part of nature and that is where I want to stay, I am also earning a great bit of cash by selling on my wildlife photos, but not everything is about the money.
