Bus drivers.
Last night Micha and I went to a Mexican restaurant for dinner. Despite the fact my food was more Asian than Mexican it was yummy. They did have that Chile Poblano flavour though which did make me happy.
Anyway, the cool thing was the bus driver. So friendly. We got on the bus, and Micha said something and he was like…German? Micha nods, and the driver says, I can always pick the accent. Anyway, further on Micha in his confident way goes to ask where to get off and after awhile calls me down. The bus driver, Aussie as, starts saying bus driver things to me in Spanish like, en la proxima, espera espera. At first I thought he just knew 2 words but then I realised he actually spoke Spanish and lived in Chile and Argentina a good while and we had a yak. And I was happy. Micha said he wanted to drop us off after the restaurant so he could speak in Spanish for longer. So cute and friendly.
