I love it. And I agree, we can almost always find something of interest, even in the most touristy spots.

Although I've been to Florida several times I've always avoided Miami - for obvious reasons. You'd think coming from & living in tourists resorts over the years I would know better, wouldn't you?! There is always another side to most places, but you do have to have an enquiring mind and open eye like yours! As for living from day to day, it's been forced on me, and it's hard to learn in later life. Wish I'd done it younger I guess, so that by now it would come naturally!  I whole-heartedly agree that modern life cushions us from reality far too much. Thanks for sharing this, and for proving that we can find fascinating stuff right under our noses. Travel is a state of mind! Loved this piece!

I think it helps keep one creative and passionate about what they do. Having the steady paycheck (even if it's good) makes the mind complacent I feel. It's like the hunter/gatherer mentality. If you don't work, you don't get fed. I always say if it's yourself you have to reply on, don't you think you're in good hands?

As a habit, I buy a piece of local art (typically off a street artist or small studio)on most trips as my souvenir. Hanging them around my place floods memories of trips past and special places. But to get closer to their ways of life is something more. Great article. You’ve opened my eyes to looking more at local art when I travel.
