Make Me Travel

What is “Make Me Travel”?

Make Me Travel is a project I thought of a few days ago, when I realized that I never left France. All of my friends travel a lot, and have a lot of photos of them in amazing places, and it made me kind of jalous. So I tried to figure out how to solve this out, without having to travel (because I can’t, right now).

And I ended up with this crazy idea: Create a mask of my face in order to askĀ  people all over the world to take pictures of themselves wearing my face-mask!

So here we are!

The only real rule is that the picture shows you in a representative location of the city. For exemple, in front of a famous monument everyone can recognize (the Eiffel Tower in Paris, The Statue of Liberty in New York, the Golden Bridge in San Fransisco, The Tower in Pisa, etc), or just a famous monument known only by the people living in your city. And if there isn’t any monument, or if it’s somehow complicated for you, you can stand in front a sign with the name of the city (you know, usually, next to the road, there are some “Welcome to V***” signs), it works fine!

Besides, if it happens that someone already shot in your city, it doesn’t matter, because you can do it too, just try to do something different!

Finally, it’s not because it’s a “usual holiday snapshot” that you can’t be creative! So impress me!
