The importance of photography

What I love most about google maps is the way it have helped me to maneuver around especially in a foreign countries where the locals don’t know how to speak in English.

Therefore in my life as a student in North Cyprus an island that is divided from South Cyprus due to political differences and the North Cypriot can’t speak English as they know Turkish only, therefore asking for directions from them when you are a foreigner is like asking for water in a desert.

That’s why Google map have helped me totally and that’s why whenever I travel I take photos to guide anyone else who might be interested in traveling to areas I have ever visited before.

Like recently I visited kyrenia Harbour and boy was I shocked to see how Mediterranean sea is polluted with plastics in the water and sometimes I saw even dead fish and that’s why I began a company by the name entiger travel and tours which is derived from German and swahili words meaning sustainable tourism.

And I believe the more I take photos and I create awareness one day I will knock at the right door.
