Philly 🦅 pride! So cool to hear how his career changed from following what he loved and getting out and talking to people.

Philly pride here in Aix-en-Provence too! - He mentions Ishkabible's on South Street. I miss Reading Terminal and Talluto's in the Italian market for big fat cheese ravioli!

Reading the questionnaires has been fascinating, and each person profiled has really provided a lot of insight into the expat experience. Thanks to each one for sharing their life story so candidly, and to you for initiating this series.

Love reading these-your work consistently brings me glimpses of real personal stories and glimpses of places and culture well beyond anything we see in common travel guides.

He looks so familiar, did he ever work at Lockwood on rue d’Aboukir ?

Update: he did ! He often worked *from* there, too, when he was getting into photography! How funny.
