Lauren, Rue Saint-Séverin, Paris (10/100)

I met Lauren shortly after my last encounter - she as coming out of a restaurant with her boyfriend Matt and he was taking a photo of her.

I offered to take the host of the two of them together and afterwards got talking. Matt and Lauren were from England great a chance to be able talk!!! Ruth was off shopping and allowing me time to indulge in meeting strangers so I took the opportunity.

Lauren is from Birmingham, which isn't really that far from where I live. They advised me not to eat in the restaurant (useful advice as I found myself on the same street at lunchtime the next day and went elsewhere, but then your not likely to get a decent 3 course meal for €10, I found it to be four times that per person) and they had no idea where what to do in Paris or where they were going next!!!

Thanks of being part of the project - I also took a shot of Matt, but it was never really destined to hit the project so please shout me if you'd like a copy!

This is the 10th portrait in my 100 Strangers Project round 2.
