airbnb made a magazine. why? because real people are really interesting! gae and mel are avid art collectors and world travelers. every nook and cranny of their potrero hill home is ripe with treasure and they've got a story to go with each. well into retirement, these folks have a lust for life so strong, it's infectious. i take great joy in the fact that my photo practice has lead me to encounters like this. many thanks to the folks at airbnb.
