self-taught

Describe a day in your life that includes photography:
waking up, take a shower, eat some cereals, take a walk into the forest, take some photos, get ready for meal, eat something, take the train to the town, meeting up with my mates to skate, get to a spot, take photos, more skateboarding, even more skateboarding, get something to eat, go home, take a shower, go clubbing, get drunk, go home and sleep.

I don't have one, I just start to shot. :D

I try to get some submissions, because it's good publicity, I have a cargo-acc, an a medium size flickr group. I think I spend 1h/week on promoting...
