Aleksandra talks about how solo travel at 16 taught her to observe people long before she ever picked up a camera, why she learned photography by shooting demonstrations in Barcelona rather than in a classroom, and what drove her to spend months living in the slums of Uganda documenting street children whose stories nobody else was telling. She gets into why she considers herself a traveler and storyteller first and a photographer second, why she will always prioritize the moment over the technically perfect shot, and why her greatest goal is not to become a photographer who has all the answers but to remain one who keeps asking better questions.
