Afganistan. Covered!

Met this nice couple at lunch .. Shahim (Dilzada) and his girlfriend Beau. She's originally from Indonesia, he from Afghanistan.

His grandfather's name was 'dil'-something (dil =heart) so his dad assumed dilzada as his surname for his government job. They don't have surnames ... Normally they follow some tribal naming convention .... Both of them live in Netherlands .. he talked about Bollywood .. shahrukh Khan Deepika Padukone ... He really likes deepika ... When I teased him he said that he chose Beau because she looks like her.

Talked to ma. Do it every Saturday for last 24 years ... Was going to skip today .. but decided to video call and show her the church ... She likes to travel. She was very happy. She shared her serial scene on whataspp.

Anyways ... Got tickets to lake Como. Put the right stop (there are like 5 stops around the huge lake) .. but the app (trainline) got me the wrong stop. Not my fault at all 😜

But the same train goes closer to the lake. I'm thinking I will pretend to miss my stop and go further. Everyone is very chill here ... No one checks tickets ... If I get caught, I will pay fines etc maybe.

The ticket was like 5 euros (in Italian it's pronounced Aaoro .. same spelling). So maybe I will just let it go and buy a fresh ticket to the right stop.

Or not.

Don't know yet.

Thinking I will try the green line for hop on/off bus ... Looks a slightly interesting. Then maybe get down at a train station and buy a new ticket to como in person at the station.

This sound better. Sensible. A man can try.Baca lagi
