Quote

I thought I wanted to be a journalist or a novelist.

The desire to become a journalist came really because I very much like living abroad, and like to travel, and wanted to be paid for it.

I always wanted to be some kind of writer or newspaper reporter. But after college... I did other things.

I had discovered journalism to be my life's ambition.

Actually, I wanted to become a journalist, but no matter who I imagined myself to be in the future, somehow I was sure: I would leave my hometown. I felt it was my destiny.

Well I just always wanted to be a newspaper reporter.

I became a journalist because one didn't have to specialise.

I wanted life to be episodic. I wanted to be a magazine photographer and I was willing to do what it took to become that.
