Another memory related to my solo backpacking trip happened in Cologne, Germany. I decided to alter my route a bit and instead of heading for Berlin, I hopped on a train to Cologne. Not having researched the place prior to getting there I was at the mercy of my guide book to find a place to stay. I decided on a hostel that was nearby the train station and seemed like a clean place. To my surprise, when I walked in to the hostel I ran into Samantha and Nisha, two girls that I had gone to high school with and hadn't seen in years. It was unbelievable! They had met for the weekend in Cologne and were on there way out as I was walking in. We couldn't let the fortunate circumstance pass by without reveling in our amazement over a traditional German beer. :) It was one of those moments where you couldn't help but realize what a truly small world it is.
