I am Chris Stevens, 17 and Live In Purakanui, Dunedin, Otago, New Zealand. I really like photography. I am hoping to do it for a career.

I am having my first exhibition in April next year and am looking forward to it!

I speak almost fluent Japanese, I took it as a language and received a scholarship to go there and live in a local temple for 2 months. I am applying for a scholarship next year to go to Tokyo university. They pay for all 4 years at the university, rent, airfares, the lot!
