It's a Small World (After All)

My friend Emily is teaching English in France at the moment. She lives in a dorm type setting with other teacherly folks her age. One of the other women there, and a good friend to Emily, is from Germany. Since it's relatively simple to hop on a train and go to another country in Europe, Emily went home with her German friend rather than back to the States for Christmas and the New Year.

While in Germany, Emily met some of her friend's friends. It turns out that one of the women Emily was introduced to is from the same city we live in. It gets weirder.... she went to the same high school we went to (although in between the years we did as Emily and I were about 8 years apart). This mystery woman that Emily met is none other than the little sister of one of MY FRIENDS from high school. And her twin was there too.

I remember something about hearing that one of the twins was living in Germany, and it makes sense that her twin would go and visit.

In any case, it is indeed (once again proven to be) a small, small world.
