Loved your stories. I think it’s interesting that no matter where you encounter a stranger, they always have an interesting life story. I did try to read the sign in your selfie. I opened it in my iPad, then used the magnifier on my iPhone, and could only read the first line. What did the second say?

It’s a truism, but in journalism also a basic credo: everyone has a story, and it is our job to project empathy so those we encounter gain confidence to share their stories with us – and the world. After so many years of practice, it’s become second nature to me – and also a marvelous way to meet new, fascinating individuals and have a ball doing so.
