I always know I've checked into a good hotel because there's sketchy fellas hanging out in the alleyway behind it haha.
It's hard to feel at home in a city, even one you've lived in for years. They're designed to facilitate the rat race and little more - beating hearts of human imperfection. The film 'Lost in Translation' sprang to mind when I read this, and I think that's telling.
Thanks for sharing with us.
easily one of my favorite films - the most honored!
