Blessed are you who …

I know Thomas of twenty years. But pass along an entire month rubbing elbows, up and down the Mongolia, is a completely different music …

Thomas is a professional photographer, with a specialization in tourism and particularly in motorcycle trips – his first love-for the headboard “Motorcycling“; When we proposed to document this edition 2017 of “Mongolia Motorbike Marathon” accepted for, with an enthusiasm that only true fans know.

The only request I made was to be able to do the whole trip on the bike, to be totally immersed in the spirit of the Group and adventure – We would have thought him to find place for a pallet of photographic material between reflex drones lights Trestles; Oh well we told you, glad you – We will always keep ready a place on one of the off-road vehicle of the Organization, in case you change your mind along the way …

And eventually that place on the jeep has always remained free, Despite the journey, Indeed, the two trips, have proved to be more challenging than expected at several junctures.

And of course that its being “on the road” enabled him to build a relationship on par, of great confidence, with the participants of the trip. And more than once, I heard the fateful phrase ask Thomas “Blessed are you who …“: Blessed are you who do a job that you like, that makes travelling less and motorbike routes which are most beautiful in the world; almost almost: you're lucky you're still on vacation …

And’ a legitimate thought, It is intended to, for anyone who is on the other side of the screen, and certain activities only sees the many seemingly positive aspects; If I instead about that theory of “always be on vacation” already had some doubts, well, in this experiment I made a very clear idea: In short, donot to divide your room on the road with a professional photographer!!

In the middle of the night, listen up guys a thief in GER, do you think!-, but no, is he trying to get dressed to go to capture the landscapes painted by the crack of dawn, then if anything fall within minutes of snorting like a Mouflon drunk because outside it's all cloudy …

then all day to jump back and forth from the rest of the group as a cricket crazy to find the most beautiful shots

and you on Land that acts as a pastor/broom to skid recklessly to continue to hold the sheep in the desert without losing this black sheep …

the good Shepherd and sheep

relentlessly until late in the evening when, After km of slopes, dust, beer and vodka, You can't wait to jump on the cot, but NO!, There are thousands to download gigabytes of photos and videos, save them in at least two different hard drives, Select the best photos and begin to touch them up and fix them, just to see if in the Newsroom will like it or not, and finally do maintenance to all equipment to be perfectly ready for the next day …

And luckily there is always some pious soul willing to give a helping hand while shooting!

In short, certainly Tommaso does a special job, that give him great human and professional satisfactions; but here's, don't think it's a holiday, Any! and indeed I wish him a real vacation soon, no bike or camera, so as not to risk shrinking like this! 🙂
