People Of The World

One of my favorite things to do while traveling is meeting and observing (surreptitiously or otherwise) the people around me. Nothing beats sitting in a piazza, park, or pub and watching the world go by. It's overwhelming how diverse this world is; and yet, at the same time, everything is eerily familiar, no matter how far away from home you are. That familiarity often starts with people. No matter where I've been, people are doing the same thing-- eating, laughing, rushing, working, biking, kissing, holding hands, relaxing, and chatting.

I will regularly post candid and not-so-candid photos of people from Portland to Prague. Their smile, eyes, posture, and style are among many things to admire. Seeing people captured in their element is definitely worth a thousand words.

A trip to the local market in Reggio di Calabria will lead to a gastronomical fortune.
