Hi, my name is Ruby, I’m 28 years old and I live in a suburb right outside of Washington, DC. I’ve been a contractor for the government for the last 5 years and I hope to transition into becoming a full-time travel and documentary photographer. I’m a serious adventure junkie; I’ve gone white water rafting, sky diving, and love a serious adrenaline rush. My goal is to eventually work location independent, allowing for my family and I to travel where ever we please, whenever we please.
Read MoreIRAN BY AHMED SAEED
My name is Ahmed Saeed, and I’m a 29 year old Interior Designer/Fine Arts Graduate from Cairo, Egypt. Photography is my hobby with a significant chunk of photos taken and processed using only my iPhone. As a young man with dreams, working in an office did not make me happy, so I left my job. After a year of hesitation, I decided to travel to Morocco for two weeks by myself with just my guide book and backpack. I definitely prefer more raw, undiscovered, and less touristy places which allow me to discover things for myself through culture, traditions, language, and of course food.

My name is Vinicius Mancini, I'm a graphic designer (and musician) based in São Paulo, Brazil. Because I'm a designer, I've always had strong interest in photography, though it has grown significantly after I joined and began actively using Instagram. São Paulo is a huge city, with a large population of about 20 million people living here. I think the crazy thing is that we don't have one particular culture; it's more of a huge mix of different people and cultures. I used to say we have several little countries inside different neighborhoods around the city, which is probably what makes me love it the the most. It's such a wild and dynamic city!
