U.S. Trip 2007

After having a rushful start and only just making the flight with about two minutes to spare, I met a great, friendly airplane whom I was sitting beside. He was just going back to Auckland from a holiday he had spent with his daughter, who was doing a Nursing degree, in Queenstown. During the flight, we talked about everything from the economy to real estate prices to what makes billionaires successful to what makes airplane crash, it was splendid. Having in-depth conversations with strangers is a very new experience for me, and it was great -- informative, entertaining, and gave me some amount of experience in talking to strangers. The man and his daughter were very friendly and humble, I hope to meet more people like that throughout my life time.
