By asking North Korean citizens two simple questions Associated Press photographer Wong Maye-E had found out how really brainwashed the local people are. These questions were “what's important to you?” and, “what's your life motto?” and the answers are speaking for themselves.
During his half-a-year solo journey, photographer Alexander Khimushin, covered 25,000 km to visit many remote locations across Siberia: from lake Baikal shores to the coast of Japan sea, from endless steppes of Mongolia to the coldest place on Earth – Yakutia. In this time, he captured lots of faces and traditions of local people that almost nobody has seen before.
