Meet Vanessa. She’s a ticket seller for the Museu de Cera or the Wax Museum here in Barcelona just off La Rambla.
We saw Vanessa for the first time a few weeks ago, after taking some photos and speaking with a few of Barcelona’s street artists.
We got to talking, small talk, with the usual amenities, like an introduction, getting to know a little of one another and then we were off.
I DIDN’T even take any photos of her that day.Maybe I felt that our moment was just a little break for me.
Later on I got to thinking about Vanessa and what a pleasant time we had chit-chatting with her. I hoped to meet her again someday.
But time passed on and there was no Vanessa until 3 days ago. She recognized us and genuinely looked happy to see us. Although she was a little tired she agreed to have her picture taken and her voice taped.
In real life, Vanessa is an aspiring actress. So, listen to the audio, get to know her just a little and maybe, just MAYBE, someone of importance will give Vanessa a break and invite her to an audition.

P.S. I have to admit that I have not gone to the Wax Museum. Why? Because it's a little expensive for me. It is too bad that many of the attractions do not have a one-day a week or one-day a month free admission like the Picasso Museum has. Maybe some one can give free admission just a little thought?
