Stranger 63 - Hanneke
Meet Hanneke, all the way from the Netherlands, on a wild quest to explore the colorful wonders of Australia! Over the last couple of months, she's been on an epic adventure across this enormous continent, experiencing the extreme weather whiplash from the sizzling heat of Adelaide to the chilly bites of Sydney.
Her shiny blonde hair immediately caught my attention as she sat beside the Archibald fountain in Hyde Park, just outside Museum Station. A splash of white from her hoodie, paired with that bright yellow hair against the dark brown bench amidst the vibrant greenery – it was like a scene from a quirky painting, perfectly set in the midday sun.
She had headphones on, which gave me a moment's pause. Should I interrupt her trance? But then I remembered all the times I've approached people lost in their books, chatting with friends on the phone, or lost in their music (apparently, like in this case). Nothing's ever stopped me before from striking up a conversation with random folks in everyday situations, so why not this time?
As it turns out, she's a fellow metal music fan, instantly transporting me back to those uni days when I couldn't get enough of Metallica - "Turn the Page," "The Unforgiven," you name it. Ah, those were the days, buried now in the dusty corners of faded memories. But it was refreshing to find someone with similar tastes. Her only regret? Not being able to pull off those hardcore metal growls – soft metal was her forte. And to add to the charm, she's into painting, and much to my mild amusement, her dad's a horror movie buff. Classic!
