In 2004, I took six months off from photo school and went to the US, bought a car and subsequently crossed the continent twice, first from Providence, Rhode Island to Seattle, Washington, then from Los Angeles, California, to Tampa, Florida. I didn’t really have any plans for those six months except to take photos and learn English really, really well.
Not having a theme or an issue I wanted to work on photographically proved to be a bit problematic because I got easily distracted and wasn’t happy with my pictures when I came back to Switzerland. I ended up gathering a few photos in a book that I have avoided looking at for a long time.
