Meeting Leo; an Iranian living on the streets of Hollywood

The sun was about to set. I was walking in Beverly Hills and looking around to get some nice views of golden light falling on the Hollywood sign. All the popular culture I consumed all these years, was mostly made here. It was pretty underwhelming I must say. I walked over and across the famous stars in the Walk of Fame, most of the names were unfamiliar to me except for Jennifer Aniston Jennifer Lopez and Drake. As I walked further, The smooth and shiny granite flooring soon turned to the usual poured concrete one; a very typical feature of the American sidewalks. Having a more sustainable set of ideas I once wondered about the magnanimity of the concrete used in the sidewalks. Anyway, I was walking across that path, with Hollywood sign peeping from some vistas on my left. The sun was orange juxtaposing along with the yellow traffic lights and tall palm trees in the background. That was California for me.
