My 15 Pictures I Took In Algeria, A Place That’s Soon To Be On Everyone’s Radar
Ever since I was young, I have been fascinated by faraway countries and traveling. I started taking photographs and publishing them on the internet in 2006. Quickly, magazines and newspapers from all over the world, like Geo, Nat Geo, Lonely Planet Magazine, etc. began using my work for illustrations on North Korea, Papua New Guinea and more.
In my pictures and travel stories, I offer a positive and benevolent gaze of the countries I visit, often unknown by the public.
Algeria was not a tourist country as for a long time it was dangerous to visit it; nowadays, the place is safe and offers incredible diversity. Soon the future destination for influencers!

Beautiful pictures, but saying "Soon the future destination for influencers!" is really off-putting. Influencers aren't exactly known for their cultural respect when travelling. Not all countries have built economies around tourism and that's fine.
If they dress the way they do on their pics there, they will up for quite a lot of street harassment

Agreed. I wouldn't visit a country that treats women like animals. Tourism supports countries with discriminatory laws, don't feed it by leaving your money there.

Amazing photos, been to Algiers, Constantine,timimoun and Janet, people are so friendly and I think one of the best place I've visited Algeria is hidden from mass tourism which makes it a hidden gem. Rich culture and history.felt safer in Algeria than Paris or New York,
The fact that you felt safer in Algeria than in Paris is quite ironic
