Coming out of North Korea...
I just came out of North Korea 5 days ago. It was a very special experience after hearing about the country for the first time in 1997 and having it in my heart ever since. It was a dream fulfilled and now a few days later it almost feels like a dream. Was I really there? Did I really see all the things I saw? Did it really happen? I feel privileged and honored to visit this country called a "hermit country" and "the closest place on Earth". This country with a population of about 24 million people that most of the world knows so little about, for sure. I was inside only 5 days, but when I came home I felt like I had been gone a month, with a journal full of notes and hundreds of pictures. And still, though I felt like every day was a week of experiences, I came out with so many questions, even more curious than before. There are so many layers, but also much simplicity. There is so much beauty, but also a darker side. I´m not a great photographer, and wit...
