For the Google Street View assignment, I traveled to the tiny town of Thompson in Manitoba, Canada. I sought to document life in the wilderness, but ended up encountering a familiar landscape instead–suburbia. I snapped photos of apartment buildings, small homes, Wal-Mart, and tree-lined highways, all reminiscent of my current residence of Olympia, WA.
