How about that?

Here's a coincidence for you.

I am from Guernsey.
My next door neighbour is called Mike. His son/nephew (can't remember), lives in Guernsey, with his wife from Sark....

Isn't that mad?

Well to me it was entertaining

I love that kind of stuff!

Years ago when I was backpacking through Europe, I was in the middle of feeling so homesick one night. We were in Barcelona and it felt far far away from my back yard. We went to a restaurant for dinner and over the din of the crowd, I heard a familiar voice. At first I thought I was hearing things, but then I caught sight of a familiar face.....a person I had worked with as a camp counsellor a couple of years before.....we had been very close then.

I rushed out of the restaurant and caught up with her.....big embraces on an empty street in Barcelona. Not only did the encounter ground me back to who I was and where I was from, it gave me the confidence to carry on with my dream of travelling.

I think they are always a wink from the cosmos......and it's MAD!

love to you sweetie......glad you're posting again.

:) hey Dana. I love that story. And I love Barcelona! In the middle of my language placement I became friends with two Italian girls also learning Spanish and we went out every evening for Chinese food...it seems to be a city that brings people together!

Good to be posting again.
