Strange things with strangers

After a month on the road, I feel like I've met a lot of travellers. The weirdest thing is that sometimes when you find someone who is on the same wavelength as you, you can chat for hours about stuff you find harder to talk to about with friends.

Like just today, one of the housemates (big brother flashback!) started telling me her life story- her parents divorce, moving to London and then Amsterdam, dropping her science degree and taking up photography.

Do people really talk about that sort of stuff on the first meeting?

It's just strange how easy it is to slip into one of these conversations with people you barely know.

But oh man, that girl is the coolest person I have ever met. I wish I was her ;D I feel like stuff I think about is so minuscule/irrelevant in comparison!

My neck hurts like crazy and my throat is hoarse from talking/laughing but it was so worth it.

In other news, I'm in dc, but will be home in less than a week. Psyched for my detox sesh (asif) and SUMMER.

40 degree heat? Bring it on bitches!
