Whilst staying with some university students in Tallahassee, I went for a hike in Lake Talquin State Forest. I hitched a ride with Thalia, another student, who drove past her house to the forest as a favour.
She ended up hiking with me for a bit and we talked and talked about travelling! She'd done a solo trip to Europe a couple of years before. When we parted ways she said, 'This is exactly what I needed.' Which was so nice to hear. I like to think that all the detours and change-of-plans that I inadvertently induce in people are for the better!
Nine miles, a tin of chickpeas and a nap-on-a-bench later, I emerged from the trail. At that very moment, a guy stepped out from a different path and headed towards the only car in the car park.
'Are you headed to Tallahassee?'
He was. Bingo.
