Professional People-Watcher

Graphic by Rosa Picard

Humans are a curious species: always inventing, always creating and imagining, always craving more information, and this little hunger inside us is never satisfied. Even in moments of stillness or boredom while we wait for something to happen, something to tickle our minds and bodies, be it our bus arriving (not likely in Bristol), or the queue we’ve been standing in shortens and we can finally shuffle awkwardly forwards, even in those tedious moments the human brain is still rapidly searching to feed its hungry curiosity. My brain’s favourite way of doing this: people watching.
