Experiencing the lives of people from different corners of the world, getting acquainted with diverse cultures, exploring the hidden/mysterious background of various professions, tasting exotic cuisine – each is an equal part of the project’s mission, slowly but surely fulfilling its purpose. Through Jaroslav Benda’s week, we were able to travel to the Arabian Peninsula, specifically to Yemen. It is evident that even a single, honestly-documented set discloses so much about a given country and its inhabitants. So, take a walk around Yemen markets alongside Mr. Benda and savor the local atmosphere.

Today’s Editor’s Choice is not just the celebration of a successfully documented week of Karel Kuran’s life, describing the journey from his native Czech Republic to his new home in Belize. Not only is it a record of the transition from a small state in Central Europe to an even smaller state in the eastern part of Central America, but a milestone for us in the form of the satisfyingly round number 30. That is the running total of countries where we have at least one photographic record of 168 hours of local life through the eyes of a resident. Every ‘sneak peek’ into a new country is an immense contribution to the project.
