Street photography, Portrait of the Miner

in #streetphotography7 years ago (edited)

Bochum alike all the Ruhrgebit area, was a famous place for coal mining in Germany in the past times. Now it is only crypto miners left. People here proud of this part of history, they put image of the miners on graffiti, movies, photo exhibitions and songs. On the right side you can see Eiffel tower of Bochum. You can see this monument of engineering from everywhere around. From the industrial area of Germany, Bochum and all Ruhrgebit, now became art capital of Northern-Westfalia.

Portrait painted by zs-germany.de if I understood right.. 

My name is Timon, and I am on the slowest worldwide cruise ever. In 2011, I left country where I was born and since then I'm traveling supa slow. My plan is to go Around the world in 80 years.. 

  • What is the point? - I want Just look around, have a lot of fun and make things I'm interested on. It will take time.
  • Why so long? - Because I really want to see how people live and what this place is for me, so I stay some time in each spot, and it's so many.. 
  • How long I stay? - Not too long, not too short, it's really depends on many things.. 
  • Am I so rich to just travel..? - No not at all. It is what making this trip a bit more complicated but still awesome and interesting. 
  • Am I serious? - No, not really. But still on my road..

The Biggest part of my way so far was by Sea and Ocean,  7 years I spent on my boat, and last 3 on a little island. But for the moment I'm back on the dry land, and I can find a lot of fun here as well.
