Stranger #15: Quinn. His kind soul approached me because of my rubber duck microphone! 🐣✨ I love when that happens.

He’s an actor based in Chicago who sometimes feels like his job doesn’t mean much in this world with wars and so much chaos… but bringing people joy is so needed right now.

Good theater, just like kindness, can really make someone’s day. He definitely made mine more special.

Strangers #12 and #13: Kyra and Ann 🍓

They’re NYU students celebrating a strawberry festival!? Lol. I knew right away they would be super open for an interview though I must admit the chaotic event ambiance made it harder for us to have a deep conversation which is the entire goal of this series. I felt a bit awkward the entire time.

They both consider themselves introverts so it’s cool to see this fun way they’ve found to build human connection with strangers.

Maybe we should all dress as strawberries at least once in our lives. Though for me dressing as an inflatable shark was enough. I’ll tell you that story another time.

Stranger #11: Damion. From Buddhist to Christian.

When I approached him he was down for an interview right away saying “I’ve been wanting to try new things so let’s do it”.

Our conversation about God started because I loved his pants which had a custom drawing of the Garden of Eden. I then asked “do you believe in God?” to which he said “yes, I actually found God earlier this year”.

I was genuinely surprised. His tattoos and cool look made me think his pants were just for the aesthetic. I was so wrong and I love that.

Fun fact. he’s a professional dog trainer! So hit him up if you need his services in NYC 🦮🐾
