When did you join AEGEE?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jorge: I do not know the exact date, but I know it was one day before the deadline for the Summer Universities this year. The talk with my friend at 2 AM was very much worth it.<\/p>\n

Why did you join AEGEE?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I wanted to have a different summer, meet new people from everywhere and travel around. I was also interested in the Environmental Working Group (EnWG), even though I did not know what its function was.<\/p>\n

What have you done in AEGEE so far?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I went to the Summer University “A Dutch-Deustch Adventure” organized by AEGEE-Enschede, AEGEE-K\u00f6ln and AEGEE-Utrecht (which was great! I recommend it to everyone for 2014!) I have been helping with organizing the Mediterraneanly! Agora pre-event. Also, I attended a Youth in Action (YiA) project called “Green Leaders” on the part of AEGEE in Istanbul this September. After this, I joined the EnWG as the secretary, and now I am attending the AGORA Zaragoza 2013. But I have a lot of things in mind and I really want to get deep in AEGEE. It means a lot to me already!<\/p>\n

When did you become interested in photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have always been interested in photography, my mom had an old camera that I would use some years ago all the time. But my interest in photography became stronger when I turned 18.<\/p>\n

How is it to work\u00a0professionally\u00a0as a photographer?<\/strong><\/p>\n

If we define proffessional photographer as someone that gets paid for taking pictures, then I am a proffessional photographer, otherwise, I am just a noob trying to get better everyday.<\/p>\n

I am, mainly, a nightlife photographer, and I also do a bit of fashion photography as a hobbie. I work for a company and take pictures at parties, concerts, pubs, events, for alcohol brands and sometimes even at supermarkets. I love my job because I get to meet a lot of people, make contacts and have fun with my friends at the same time as I earn money and get better at taking pictures and editing them.<\/p>\n

What made you interested in becoming a helper for Agora Zaragoza?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I am very interested in how AEGEE works and this was my best chance to do three things I really wanted to do: meet a lot of AEGEEans, work in a group and to attend the AGORA to see how everything works.<\/p>\n

What is special about being part of the helper’s team?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Being part of the helper’s team of the best AGORA that I will have the chance to see in AEGEE, you mean? (Because I was not in Alicante 2011)<\/p>\n

What tips can you give for people that know less about photography?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Be patient, take time for things to go as you want. It is not about the camera, but about the photographer. Get your gear out on the streets and shoot!<\/p>\n
