A Polish Girl Who Travels @alexpawlowska - Tumblr Blog

Meet me. My name is Alex and I am A Polish Girl Who Travels. I am 25 and I have started looking for heroes.

Apart from travelling I love writing so I chose journalism as my university degree. I did internships in newspaper and in television but it just wasn’t for me. There was something missing. I always wanted to write about people not politics. This project is a fulfilment of my dream. It comes from a need to create meaningful stories. I am the founder of Looking for Heroes. I follow my dreams. What is your story?

Waiting for better times to come

Photograph taken in one of the most colourful favelas of Rio de Janeiro, Santa Marta. It is a safe place where tourist from all over the world can come with their cameras and look at the hardship that spreads like a plague throughout Brazil. Buildings were painted by Coral - a brand that turned the favela into a living advert with their branding everywhere. Colour doesn't hide the poverty that lingers in the air with the heavy smell of drains and dirt. It is there to show how easy to exploit this place is. People there have to deal with being forgotten. They can just wait for better times to come.
