and i shook hands with tobi at press club.
he is a very tall man well built and energetic.
he is a musician and performs on the stage as clown.
he was a mechanical engineer before breaking away to his creative talent.

he showed us the photos of the cities he has shot.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT
he is carrying a folding bicycle with him.
so for the shoot he goes on his small bicycle.
we came out of press club.
his bicycle (size of the wheels were much smaller than a children's bicycle but with 7 gears) was parked out side the gate.
he is a comic character!
we say him all the best for his future journey!
and he paddled away!
