Hey, I’m David 📷🌍 I’m 36, from Australia, and I’ve been living on the road for 12 years now. My camera is always with me. I love meeting people, hearing their stories, and sharing interesting faces, warm talks, and big dreams. Stay for roads, people & moments. 🚐 — D.

He sails out before dawn and comes back when the sun is high above the boats.
He talks little, smiles often. The sea, the wind and the salt tell his story instead.

Millennia of enmity between their peoples, sixty years of friendship between two men - and one bench. Yakov and Amir - sons of immigrants, born neighbors in New York and remained neighbors all their lives. Their wives are long gone, and their children have scattered who

Getting lost in the wild expanses of Yosemite, you can encounter these silent companions by the eternal cliffs, their eyes holding tales of untrodden paths, a fleeting bond in nature's vast embrace.
