the new, unknown – ForEigN

A mother, landed in a new country, with two kids and few bags. She just smiled at everyone almost everyone, keeping her nervousness away. The journey was in its last phase two more hours and she will be in her new home city. The boarding took place, she located her seat and settled kids on their seats her bag underneath. The person next to her was another lady traveling back to her home (the home country as well) after attending some meetings. The destination was same, their ‘home’, in the same city.  They smiled and without any delay started to chit-chat (without noticing someone is listening). They were talking about everything, as moms, and as woman’s, sharing their grief, and some information about the city.

The mother was talking to her and also taking care of her kids, they were on next row, almost slept.

The lady was friendly with her and made her comfortable too in a foreign land. It feels wonderful how two totally different people become friends in just one meeting, it seems they shared some connection somewhere.

A foreign land becomes friendly if you see people smiling back to you, and are welcoming!
