There’s this thing about being a New Zealander that feels strange to someone like me who wasn’t born here. If I go overseas to another city and mention I’m from New Zealand, people will say, do you know X who lives there? At least half the time I do.
Likewise my late mother-in-law was visiting and travelled to the South Island for a few days where on two occasions she struck up conversations with strangers. When she told them she was visiting Jo and me… both people told her they knew us.
Miraz Jordan Kiwi as! NZ, the place where you shouldn't discuss other people in cafes because their sister-in-law's cousin will be sitting right behind you!
Odd-Egil “Oddzthrash” Auran @Miraz Sorry for barging in, but I can’t help it. I once sat at a cafe in Oslo, and was talking to a lady who were with me, saying I was looking forward to the Women’s European (or was it World?) championship in handball in a month, whereas she made a gesture which made me look over at the table behind me, and there sat one of the most famous Norwegian women’s handball players! 🤾♀️
Miraz Jordan @odd Hah hah. Small world! And you're not barging in… it's a public conversation. 😀
