A recent iPhoto crash had me going through quadruplicates of photos taken over the last seven years. As an individual highly susceptible to nostalgia, going through some 15,000 photos took a lot of time.
I spent a lot of time looking at photos from my first trip I took alone (besides that one time I just didn’t get on the bus to the airport with the rest of my Mexico study abroad group). That first solo adventure was Italy 2009, my first big boy trip after graduating college and getting a job.
Florence was, of course, on the itinerary. Here are some of my favorite shots of Firenze characters.
The woman waiting above and the man smoking while reading the paper below are my favorites. Just you wait for the old ladies on bicycles. You know it’s coming.





Fantastic photos, Jake.
Thanks, Amber! More to come as I wade through my archives…
