open letter. updated. part 2.

It was a cracking time with you guys and I can never thank you enough. During this summer of hitching and couchsurfing there were many discoveries about the world, myself and other people. What I understand better now is the importance of sympathy. I have also reconsidered the ideas of truth, love and freedom.

open letter. updated. part 1.

Hey Ahmad, David and Mohammad,

merhaba! :)

how are you? David, is your Arabic improving? Mohammad, any luck with the tests so far? Ahmad, is the heat in Saudi Arabia bearable? Sorry for the tardy reply.

David, you wondered how the airport experience was. In short, like nothing before. 8) And here's why ;).

Farewells said, I walk down the road towards my last hummus (sigh!) before the flight back home. Right opposite the Arabic centre I notice a sign saying the DOORS cafe. Goodness, I've lived here 3 weeks and it's the first time I ever notice it! The line from their song "Where will we be when the summer's gone?" has haunted me for years. What is it doing here of all places any way? But then, music has no boundaries, does it? It would be psychedelic to have coffee here, but there's no time really.
