Small World

It's quite common to run into the same people over and over again when you're traveling a particular region since there's usually a route that people follow. What's not common is running into the same people years later and on another continent, which is why I was so shocked to see Rob English and Harriett Campbell, a British couple I met in Kota Kinebalu, Malaysia on my very first backpacking trip. They turned up not only in the same hostel, but in the same dorm room. Apparently they'll be heading north towards the U.S. as well so I'll probably see plenty more of them.

You remember! After we met them they went to Vancouver and worked for a year. Apparently Canadian free healthcare is not as free as British free healthcare.

maybe the closer you get to america, the less free your healthcare gets.
