Austral.
The Place That Took My Heart.
The South is a truly fickle creature. You never know whether you will be blessed with sunlight, or shaken to your core by freezing winds.
She is rugged, gritty and at times simply brutal - a far cry from comfort. But for every battering gust, for every squall, she pays back in unforgettable beauty.
I travelled through Patagonia for five months by car. What I saw, experienced and felt changed my life.
This is where I discovered who I truly am. Through tribulation and joy, solitude and beautiful connections, I grew to hear myself.
Thinking of these places still brings me to tears, even as the years have gone by.
Patagonia’s immense landscapes and brutal conditions bring meaning to the Sublime: a feeling of insignificance as you are crushed by Nature’s power - and yet completely free. Your soul soars with the clouds as your mind finds a peace so deep.
