Day 51
Today I met John, a guy staying in our hostel. I was talking to one of the staff members about stupid tattoos as a guy in a black T-shirt and horn-rimmed glasses passed by. He stopped to comment on the conversation and never left. John is a Canadian who is simply traveling through Europe for four months on college loans after graduating last year. He's been to several countries so far and have a couple months left to go. John sat and talked with us for a while and invited us out for drinks before he went to a live sex show. Needless to say, it wasn't our cup of tea. The next day I was kind of turned off by John and his uncensored antics. After his night out he gave us a graphic description of the sex show including reenactments and sprinkled it with various curse words and exclamations of "Jesus Christ!" Bear in mind, we are in the middle of a Christian Youth Hostel common area. I admire people who don't give a shit what people think about them, but there is very often a fine line between that and being disrespectful. John crossed that. But oh well, to each his own I suppose.

ReplyDeleteTo each his own is correct but often we are judged because we occupy the neighboring stool
