For some reason EVERY SINGLE TIME I'm travelling I have at least one very weird experience.
Today I was flying home and I had an awkwardly racist taxi driver who was complaining about 'asian cyclists' and wanted asian cyclists banned from the country even if it might be 'against the constitution.'
But even more awkwardly, some guy came over to me in the train station and asked for help with ticket desk stuff, then he was suddenly like 'you're very beautiful, do you have a boyfriend? White or black? (he himself was black) You should be with a black man' and other more personal and creepy comments. While I was buying my ticket he went and spoke to some other African dude and then came back over. He touched my hands and shoulders every so often which was also super awkward lol Anyway, by the end of this he had my luggage case in his hand and was putting his number into my phone. I managed to escape via my train but it was suuuper awkward and creepy (I'm reeeeally bad at telling people to buzz off)
Lowsound basically summed it up:
12:48 AML0wsound: she let some stranger in an empty train station take her luggage and cell phone
Another example of Lia weird times on travels was when I was 14 on the train in Italy some Indian guy sat across from me and started telling me I was beautiful, Irish girls are very pretty etc. and asked me if I had a boyfriend. He told me he wasn't married and was 24 and owned a kabab shop (lol) He asked me what stop I was getting off at but I said something really vague. He got off the train before me and ran after it as it pulled out of the station, waving (like some kind of cornball old-timey film)
I prob have more of these if I took the time to think about it more lol Anyone else have any crazy/whacky/creepy-af travel stories?
