Tourist in my own town


Though my overseas travels may be done, I still am afflicted with the traveler's bug. And by that I mean the snap-happy stuff, not involuntary bowel-cleansing. I am Asian afterall. It wouldn't be normal if I didn't have a camera hanging from my neck, right? So as I drove through the snowy streets of Chicago today, I vowed to treat the city like I am an extended tourist. I'm going to try and not use my daily buzzing about the city as a means to get from point A to point B, but rather try and look for both it's obvious beauty and it's hidden gems. Hopefully life's other distractions won't make me veer off this project.
