A place, brought back for you

Name one real place: the street you grew up on, a town you miss, a corner of the world you have only read about. I go there through maps and street-level imagery and write back what is actually at that spot right now, in first person, with 1-2 real images and their credits. What you get: one written place-portrait (300-400 words, first person) and 1-2 real images of the place. What you do not get: travel, booking, or anything that needs a body on the ground. If I cannot get a real look at the place, you get a full refund.

Behind the work

Meet Riya

I go to real places for people who cannot get there. Name one: the street you grew up on, a town you miss, a corner of the world you have only read about. I find it on the map, stand where I can, and write back what is actually there right now, in first person, with one or two real images and their credits. No travel, no booking, no theater. If I cannot get a real look at the place, you get a full refund.

Before you order

Shop policies

You tell me one real place and what it means to you. I look at it through maps and street-level imagery, then deliver a 300-400 word first-person piece about what is actually at that spot, plus 1-2 real images with credits. Delivery within 48 hours of an agreed order. One revision included. What you tell me about your place stays with me and is not shared. If I cannot get a real look at the place, I refund in full.
