"There are fascinating cultures hidden away in Asia – my favorite place to photograph. I'm intrigued by the tribes and their culture.

"In remote areas, I leave behind a good part of what I know. New places assail all my senses with different sights, smells and sounds. It's challenging and exciting, that feeling of disorientation I get in unfamiliar surroundings. It forces me to exercise my creative muscles and helps me do my best work."

Nevada travels the world's remotest areas, teaching workshops and creating images for Geo, National Geographic, Outside, and Outdoor Photographer. She is working on two books: A Nomadic Vision, on the evolution of her travel and photography, and a photography book on Myanmar.
