ANNA AIKO

I’m an iPhone photographer with a passion for traveling on camelback.

 

I was born in Tokyo and raised between two cultures, Japan and France.

In the mid-1970s, my parents lived in Saudi Arabia, and since my childhood, their stories became like a fairy tale.

Later, I lived in Paris for 20 years as an Art Director in the fashion and luxury industry.

 

My heart was always saying “Travel.”

Since 2015, I began following the ancient path of the Silk Road, capturing by iPhone the beauty of life.

That led me to win the iPhone Photography Awards and other worldwide awards.

 

From 2019, I explored over 3,000 km on camelback across Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and the island of Socotra.

I was runner-up at the Global Camel Race in the UAE.

 

Delighted by its hidden beauty to discover, my love story with the Arabian Peninsula began.
