An homage to people

GERMANY | Wednesday, 11 January 2012 | Views [870] | Comments [2]

This little piece will just be an homage to all the amazing people I have met on my way. The people stopping in the middle of roundabouts, in the twillight, on service stations in the middle of the night for a possibly tired, extremely dirty (at points I think my pants could walk by themself!), wet, layered with clothes beyond recognition of gender and looking like a bum. And the people who offered places to sleep, when I had non. Responding to desperate pleas for a couch from some random girl(s) calling them up, meeting in the streets and giving me a ride. I am truly amazed by the amount of people willing to help a stranger with food, shelter, any future troubles (I have collected a vast amount of numbers of peoples friends) something that I believed only existed in far far away countries. I think al this prejudices are a result of people travelling to find something exotic in the far East Asia or South America and forgetting the close neighbours in Eastern Europe!

I will just repeat my apology for spelling errors and typos on this blog. I just reread some of it and wow that's is really bad. Even my mother pointed this out to me and she is a far from worse English speaker than me. A readers guide: I often put "a" instead of "I" and switch around "me" and "my", the rest is just being lazy and lot proof-reading before publishing.
