Michaela has been working for the street magazine Apropos for twelve years. “I was delighted to get an award for a journalist here, but the most joyful moment is always coming from our vendors,” she said. “Witnessing vendors’ helping out each other is making my day all the time.”
Apropos published a book titled “What does home mean to you?” recently. Fifteen vendors are answering the question by essay, fiction, and interview. Some say “I feel home when I’m on a back of a horse.” Some say “I’ve never met my mother and always been looking for one.”
“What does home mean to you?” I asked Michaela. “Well…I share an answer with one of the vendors. Home is always in my heart. The loved ones are always my home.”
