During
your journey around the world, you're going to meet
loads of different people in bars, cafes, hostels & even
while asking
for directions to the main train station. Of course, all
of this depends upon
the ever so popular question: "What type of backpacker
are you?"
The networking type or the quiet kid in the corner looking at pictures
of the past
while wondering what [ The Point of Travelling
]
photography exhibition is really about. -Geo!
Capturing
what some call priceless moments is what made some
travel photographers famous. Thus, here's a short article
about to travel
photographers, Henri Cartier-Bresson & Martin Munkacsi, who
are linked to one another by [ The
Decisive Moment ].
The PHOTOhype Project is
your sneak peak into the awe
inspiring world of backpackers
& hostel travellers. Just like
the title reads on the book
about the late photographer,
[ Dan
Eldon ] "The Journey
is the Destination."
12
years of PHOTOhype, imagine that!
I can still remember when I first started this
photo project in 1997 with Surf City Hostel &
a handful of backpackers in [ Hermosa
Beach ].
We have journeyed pretty far since that humble
beginning, which presents a deeper meaning
& insight behind [ The Point
of Travelling ].
In total,
the project was based in five different
cities within the last 12 years. The All-American
scene of [ Hermosa Beach ].
Viva, [ Las Vegas ].
The laid back lifestyle in [ San Diego
]. The quiet
romantic beauty of [ Bruges ] &
now the endless
nightlife adventures & classic drama tales inside a
historic Polish city known as [ Krakow
]. We just
started our infamous 3rd year in Krakow, Poland
which makes me wonder if I've seen the end of
PHOTOhype's so-called city hopping ways.
It
took a couple lazydays
to
figure out which phrases to use
for our
backpackerdreams
postcard collection. So, for the
most part, we
thought the
journeyinlife
and a few
mentalimages
that represents
the artoflife
or the peaceofmind
of two travelmates
caught
sleeping in a yin-yangsiesta
might be a historicevent if
the wishfulthinking
and
freespirits
of
skaterkids
whose
young&happy
attitude for swedishfaces
& newrelationships
didn't
help the pointofview
or brainstorm a few
brightideas
about a city filled with shootingstars
or a lot of
mischief&mayhem.
