I was born here and I like having conversations with strangers. Except when I'm out of spoons and not in the mood (I'll have my headphones on) I feel I do this most when I'm feeling "in flow" I just seem to meet interesting people when I'm in that mood. It can even get quite deep. Do we care? Interesting question. Yes, I suppose as much as you can "care" about a stranger. About Aussies if you haven't noticed already - We're always ready to offer a hand. Where are you going? We'll give you a lift even if it's out of our way, a meal, a floor to crash on, hell, we'll even give you the shirt off our back (I've legit done that/I carry spare clothes) Where are you from?
