The world is quite small

Yes, small and there is a lot of coincidences...
Since I have been living down under, on the opposite side of a world a few funny
coincidences have happened to me or to my friends, whom I consider like my family now.

1. Mutual friend..?
That was during my first month in Sydney in language school.
With my classmate Monika from Denmark we were talking about
our family trees as once it was topic of that lesson. I was telling
her some facts about my family, like that we used to live in Prague
and later we moved behind...She replied - I have one friend in Prague!
Me: "Really, who is it?" (Considering fact that Prague has 1 milion inhabitants
I was more polite to keep the converstation than I was really intersted in).
"Markéta" she replied. As I knew that Monika was in Spain for erasmus
I just guessed - Markéta Chalupová, which was in Spain for erasmus too.
And Monika just confirmed my guess...Seriously, are you telling me that
both of us we could meet in Spain... (Monika and Marketa were in Cordoba
and I was in Seville, however I visited Cordoba twice and everytime
I did so I always saw Markete)...You from Denmark, me from Czech
we have a mutual friend from Spain and we meet in Australia...thats crazy :)

2.I won´t go to school untill some hansome guy pass by
 One afternoon we were loitering in front of some building in cbd, drinking coffee with
Eva and Ales. Eva was about to going back to school, but obviously she didnt want
so much. So she said: I wont go to school till some nice guy pass by, as we were
watching people passing and honestly, no lookers. Then I saw quite hot guy and told
Eva, hey, look at that bloke. And Eva "Are you kidding me...? Thats Sean!"
Me and Ales looked at each others with expression, "Who the hell is Sean?"
Sean was an australian guy who Eva had met in Prague in some bar like only
one month before our flight to Sydney, so they exchange contacts...They have never met
before, untill that day :)

3. School mate from grammar school
How often does it happen that in train you sit behind your exclass mate
on the second side of the world...? That happend to Eva as well....she has
know that he has been here for more than two years...and whats more funny.
Marek works at construction site in the same street where Eva lives..

4. Girl from summer camp
For our 6months anniversary we went to Tommys bar to grab delicious
czech food. And the waitress which served us was familiar to Tomas...
Also she remided me someone as well...But after Tom realized that he has known
her from summer camp where he used to be an instructor for the children
so that girl was one from many he took care about....

So, where else you can hide if you can meet people from Rudna and Tabor here...? Nowhere
maybe on Mars...

How we met with Tomas

As it´s generally said, that everything what you haven´t written down you forget,  I have decided to write down our first meeting with Tomas. Because it was really funny and absurd moment and I always like to recall it.


I worked that night at Show girls. It was sunday however the next day would Queen´s birthday so it was day off on monday. Thats why it wasnt so dead in the club that night. Then came 2 boys and sat close to the stage. I came to serve them and talk to them a little bit as usually . First I turned to tanned boy on my left side and asked him where is he from. "Mexico" he replied. So I replied back something in spanish, probably "Dónde en Mexico vives?" and than a few more sentences. Then I turned to the right and asked the blond boy where was he from. He replied cunningly: "Europe" So I asked: "Hmm and where excatly from Europe?" "Czech republic" and me: "Děláš si prdel..? (Are you fuc*ing kidding me?)" So we can speak czech together! The other boy looked quite surprised and I didn´t wonder....Such a big coincidence...and was really funny. So we just talk about normal topic such as how long we are living here and so on...


That evening I came to boys several times a spoke to them, ok mostly with Tomas. However I have to confess that this evening He didn´t attract me so much, or maybe I just didn´t think about anything...I just enjoyed the conversation with him. When he asked me about my number I thought: "All right, what I need the most is to have contact with another czech people, but never mind, we can just go out for the beer and that´s it".


When they were leaving Tomas tried to give me friendly kiss (fortified by some booz) but I held myself back and pushed him back....


Yeah, and one week after we went out just for that beer and from that day we are together....I can´t believe that is over 5 months...Thanks for all coincidences which occured that evening! :)
