Ladybug in the desert

I’m talking about the biggest journey I've ever made, yet:

It was the start of a big change and why all of this existing now.

Two years ago I finished this solo-trip. The Journey started desperately and without any destination from Germany into the south but ended with countless impressions and after more than 30000kms back in Germany as I went back from the Scandinavian country’s. Without knowing it that was my first photography tour and I count it as my start to become a professional. By Christoph Rutenkolk - Reportage & Portrait

The Van was full, a camera was in my hand, but no clue where or what I wanna do with my life, rid of decisions, rid of germans and rid of my old life as a Chef, always asking my self over and over the same question.

What the hell am I living for?
