My name is Sofia Costa.
My father is Italian. My mother is Brazilian. I was born in Milan, which means I grew up arguing about coffee.
I studied photography in London. I carry a 35mm film camera everywhere I go. I travel with one bag.
I don’t have a home base. I have a next destination.
What I do
I write about slow travel – the kind where you stay long enough to know which café opens early and which one is worth the wait. I photograph the in-between moments: the half-eaten breakfast, the window light, the street before the tourists arrive.
I post twice a day. Morning and evening, wherever I am.
Why film
Digital is fast. Film makes you choose. I like choosing.
Every image on this site started as a frame I decided was worth the cost of one shot.
Where I’ve been
Portugal. Spain. Morocco. Italy – home, sort of. Greece. Turkey. Georgia. Japan. Vietnam. Bali.
Always moving. Never rushing.
