Marcin Konkel is a freelance photographer and writer.
He is a graduate of Tomasz Tomaszewski Academy. Marcin's work focuses mainly on local stories of people and cultures in relationship with nature. He attended business and electrical engineering studies yet it's the human behaviour that has caught his attention the most through the years.
Having gone through numerous trainings in behavioural science and coaching he ended up helping transform businesses in IT as well as supporting individuals as a certified coach.
Marcin's photographs were captured in locations ranging from the Mongolian steppe to the icy Arctic waters. From jumping roofs in the winter in Saint Petersburg to travelling through Vietnamese jungle.
Recently, Marcin focuses on exploring different Asian cultures and countries after having lived in Indonesia.

“We do not really know what draws a human being out into the world. Is it curiosity? A hunger for experience? An addiction to wonderment?
The man who ceases to be astonished is hollow, possessed of an extinguished heart. If he believes that everything has already happened, that he has seen it all, then something most precious has died within him — the delight in life.”
― Ryszard Kapuściński, Travels with Herodotus
