#WhenPeopleMatchPlaces highlights “the sweet spot where the personal and the public intersect,” explains Deepa Paul (@currystrumpet). Deepa, who lives in Amsterdam, looks for street art wherever she goes. On a recent trip to Barcelona she spotted a geometric mural, and when she posed for a photo, she realized she was wearing a matching black-and-white striped dress! Deepa’s tip for capturing similar moments: stay sharp, stay curious and don’t force it. “It can be such a delight to find a piece of our innermost selves echoed by our surroundings,” she says. “It makes me feel a little bit more at home in the world.”
