since moving back home, iāve been investing in finding and supporting small businesses in the city to take care of me and my things. hereās a list of āguysā i love and would recommend:
- a jeweler (repair, clean, and sizing)
- a watch guy (repair, restore, battery replacement)
- a tailor (hemming my pants)
- a camera repair guy (one of the last in the city!)
- a dry cleaner (self explanatory)
- a leather guy (shoes and bags)
- a knife sharpener
nothing brings me more joy than picking something up that has lovingly been given more life. seek these folks out, keep them in business. an added bonus is that iāve āunlockedā a bunch of buildings downtown that i wouldnāt ordinarily set foot in.
