 I was riding the metro mid-morning and suddenly tuned into the fact that there was some really soothing accordian music playing in the background. They don't play music on the metro. I began looking for the source and found this gentleman about 2 cars down sweetly playing. I walked over, shared my "just because" gift with him, and asked to take his picture.

Because you never know who might want this fine mode of transportation.  | Subscribe by clicking the following link:For me, Rome is where my heart longs to be.
