Take the world
with you.

This country taught me that silence can be loud: in a crowded train, in a shrine at dawn, in the careful way someone wraps a gift I didn't even buy. I left with more bows than words, and somehow that was enough.

A month riding through the north of the country on a motorbike, into places almost nobody passes through. These photographs are what we found in there.

This country gave me far more than postcard landscapes: I carry the memory of its honest smiles, its golden temples at dusk, and that feeling of having found a small piece of peace on the other side of the world.
