 Hello Steemians! My name is Aljon, a 25 year old Mobile App Developer with an extreme passion in photography and travel.  

YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE...

I have been living a boring life in the comforts of home when a sudden realization hit me...

Life isn't supposed to be lived this way. This is when I decided to get out and try to go on adventures. My first one was to hike a mountain, despite me having fear of heights. Yes, it damn nearly killed me but I loved it. Right at that moment I knew this is what I wanted to do with my life. From there, I started wandering around the country to as many places as I can go.  

But from all of these travels, another realization came...  

I WANTED TO TELL A STORY...

I wanted to inspire other people to do the same, get out of their comfort zone, live the way life as how it's supposed to be. This is where my other passion came to life. 

PHOTOGRAPHY

I started to learn everything that I can about taking photos, capturing moments and visual story telling. It's been 3 years now since I picked up my camera and started wandering around the Philippines. 

Here is a glimpse of some of the photos that I was able to capture:

WHAT CAN I CONTRIBUTE TO THIS COMMUNITY?

Welcome. Those are awesome photos. You seem like you're going to post some quality content so I followed you

I will make sure of that! Thank you! Following you back.

Hi @ajcordenete, and welcome to Steemit!

I love what you are doing and really admire your ability to do what makes you happy. Going from a boring desk job to exploring the unknown and being able to travel around, camera in hand.

I would love to hear about your travel tips and tricks. Currently I have been bitten by the travel bug and I'd be more than happy to read about your experiences and how you're getting around while seeing quality photos like the ones you've shared with us today.

Followed you and hope to see some more from you soon!

hi @idontgnu! First of all, thank you for the warm welcome! Traveling is such a unique experience and I can't wait to tell my stories of it. I've been a fan of such compact cameras because it allows me to pack light and move around easily when traveling. Definitely gonna post some more photos too!

You're very welcome! I hope you have an amazing Steem experience.

What camera are you currently using? I'm using a entry level Nikon at the moment.

I'm into some of the mirrorless cameras today. I currently use an Olympus OMD EM10 Mark II. A highly capable but light and compact camera.

A lot of people are going towards stories these days. The quality is comparable and the weight is unparalleled when it comes to DSLRs.
I think my next camera is going to be a mirrorless one, if I can afford it! 😂

And prices are very much within the same ranges too! Definitely a must have when traveling. Go for it. Best of luck!

welcome! Glad to see you here. Hope you dont get as addicted as I am to steemit! ;-)

It's a good addiction right?! Thanks alot btw!

It sure did hit me. Afraid of uncertainties and content with comfortability but like you I'm slowly going out and taking little steps and making risks.
Looking forward to your future blogs especially about photography.
