I'm performing - not my own but someone else's - work at this Evening of Travel Films & Stories tonight. Off Assignment is launching an interesting Letter to a Stranger series, while Jungles in Paris does one of my favorite things of all times - documentary photography and filmmaking about travel! #Travel #Film #photo #writing #storytelling #letters #JunglesinParis #OffAssignment #WeWork #global #stranger
