The other day, an old friend asked me what I liked most about being back in the U.S. Without skipping a beat I said: the libraries and the faces. No matter where I am, I make an effort to engage with the people around me. Much more often than not, it pays off in smiles and surprises. It also helps me balance out my days, which are generally spent buried in books that I find in, um, libraries. As I head back to Europe for a spell, I thought I’d post a few photos of some of the kind folks I’ve met while walking the streets of Los Angeles.
