It's a small world

I was in the local post office the other weekend posting my uni assignment, and heard a pair of Aussie accents from across the counter, so commented to them something about it's funny how many Aussie accents there were around Mountain View.

So we got chatting, their names are Trish and James, and it turns out they'd just moved to Mountain View from Melbourne as James got a job in the Valley. Also turns out they live in the same complex as us! So we swapped phone numbers and have caught up a few times now and they're a lovely couple, with an absolutely adorable 1 year old son named Ashwin. And to continue with the small world theme, they have the same wedding date as us, we have mutual friends, and judging by what I just read on their blog, James' birthday is the same as Seth, my nephew's.

What a small world huh? :) It's nice when you meet random people in a random place, but something as simple as the same accent can bring you together!
