My couchsurfing host upon my arrival:
- “So how long did it take you to get here from X … about 1 hour, right?
(The distance I had traveled was about 75 kilometers…!)
Another couchsurfing host
- “Why don’t you just come today instead of tomorrow?”
(And do 200 km on hilly terrain? No… thanks :D)
I meet another guest in the lobby of a hotel I had just checked in to. He hasn’t seen my bike, which is outside the hotel still. I tell him I travel by bicycle and mostly do camping, usually. He looks at my handlebar bag (the only peace of luggage I’ve brought inside for now) and asks:
- “So you have your tent in this bag now?”
