You know what's creepy?
Traveling to a country you've never been to before, walking into a random cafe and being recognised by someone.
Something like that happened to me when I was in Barcelona. We didn't have much time to look at things when we were there, since we were mostly either in the meeting or at the hotel. So, when we had a few free hours left before getting on our flight back, we decided to take a little walk around the city. However, shortly after we had left it started raining cats and dogs, so we took refuge into a nearby starbucks.
When I was ordering my hot chocolate, a girl walked up to me and
asked me
"Do you by any chance study in Hildesheim?"
"Yes ..."
"IIM?"
"Yes ..."
"You're Meike, right?"
"Yes ..."
Turns out, she was an IIM student as well and recognised me from a seminar. I must confess, I didn't recognise her. Shame on me! I was also totally surprised though. Who would have expected ... :)
