My Story

My name is Imanol Urizar and I enthusiastically welcome you to my photography website!

It is all about adventure, nature and culture through my camera. Photography is my best travel-mate as it gives me a deeper and wider view of whatever I may encounter as I roam the world. It never lets me down but takes me to new dimensions of the landscape, the people and even my own experience of both inner and outer world.

So now with this website I hope to share my experience with you and hopefully, bring some of this inspiration, joy, discovery, wanderlust, and always curiosity.

Have a nice trip, enjoy the road!

 

 

 

MY TRAVEL HISTORY

From a very young age I have had the opportunity to travel. I remember that my first long trip was to Morocco when I was 5 years old and since then I traveled a lot with my family. Now I keep trying to travel as much as I can as it has become a very important part of my life.

Countries I have been to

I have mixed feelings about this type of map since sometimes it encourages a type of trip that is based on ticking countries off a list. However, I try to give it another approach and use it to reflect in a single image which countries I have visited, bring back memories... but above all, to motivate myself by seeing the amount of places the world has to offer.
