Everyday People
Everyday people are all of us. The idea is that you can go anywhere and ask anyone that you meet the same basic questions and be fascinated by the differences in answers, but often with common themes. Around the world we may grow up different but we all share so much in common. Each week, a new ‘Everyday Person’ will be featured with their full names protected for privacy purposes.
