About Me

My photo
I'm not doing this project to necessarily make new longterm friends, or go have a drink with these people. Nor is it to pass any judgements on ones life. My goal is to simply meet interesting, and maybe not so interesting strangers who I wouldve never taken the time to talk to otherwise. One that may differ, or perhaps relate to my own life. So many times, you walk past someone, and they wont even raise their head in the slightest to say hello. I'll never understand why. The challenge to myself is not only to surpass that simple hello with one person a day, but to convince them to look into my lens and tell me something about themselves. My name is Amanda Surkin, and this is my journey of meeting 100 new faces. Take the time to listen, you may learn something :)

Stranger #59


Meet Becky Fish.

"I'm 30, and I've been into kites since I was 12. I saw a guy in Connecticut near a light house while I was with my family and he had a dual line line. We stopped and watched, and he taught us how to fly it. When I was 16, I saw some of those same kites in a hobby shop. I had just enough money in gift certificates from my birthday to purchase one, and I still have it! I competed in tournaments in Wild Wood for three years, but I never won. Ever since, it's been fun recreation. I've also done kite aerial photography, it takes wonderful birds eye view photos!- Becky
