From the dawn of time, Humanity moves from one place to another. The desire to see or live on the ‘other side’ is undying and ever growing.
These movements are primarily driven by the need to provide food for self and offspring, warmth, adventure, partnership, information and myriads of reasons.
Humanity keeps getting faster, higher and stronger in its mobility from one place to another.
Enjoy the photos.
