“Squirrels huh..” he thinks a bit “know what is really weird? Platypuses. Like.. they look like a weird bird.. but they are a mammal. That lays eggs.. and they don’t have boobs they just secrete the milk on their skin.. what is wrong with nature?”
“They are pretty strange. Very unique and I just.. it’s hard to get an impression of what to make of them. But I guess that’s what i kind of like about nature. It’s ability to come up with creations that seem to really make no sense but still work.“
“Right? I like going to australia tho. Fun place. Just kinda confusing the weather is reversed”
“Oh yeah, Australia is great. The nature out there is stunning. Yeah – the weather is reversed but I like that honestly. “
“It’s fun tho. Nice culture and all. I like geting to kow new places. Too bad there isn’t any new places to know.. I mean.. When you live this long you just have been everywhere. Except north korea but I don’t really wanna go there anyway”
“Sounds like it would be fun. Hm that is the sad part. The best you can do is maybe get to know some places even better. “
“Oh goodness – somehow that isn’t terribly surprising. Sorry to hear that you hated it during your year there.“
“It’s alright. Still better than the two years in china. God that is a weird place. Great people though. Weird place”
“I can imagine the difference over there would be even more jarring.“
“It really is not that common. Londoners sound terrible. I lived here for a year recently. Hated it.”
“Oh goodness – somehow that isn’t terribly surprising. Sorry to hear that you hated it during your year there.“
“Also they have like, the best english accent. My second favorite. My favorite is australian. Those posh british accents some people swoon over are too overrated”
“It is a rather nice accent. Australian too. Heh I heard that not too many people even speak that posh British accent, some of that is literally just for the news.“
He laughs
“Oh man.. I feel like scots are the good part of britain. They are honest and to your face. And they hate england so I can empathize”
“Yeah, I feel like they are pretty good folks. All the ones I’ve talked to have been cool people for sure.“
“It’s the great outdoors! Doesn’t it make you proud of being Scottish?” He says, on the thickest scottish accent he can make. He’s quoting trainspotting yes
They just laugh in response. A movie reference they do understand but are in no state to try and continue.
“This is why I like road trips. It just cleanses the soul and gives you motivation to do all the things you want. There is something mystical about being in the road.. I mean look at this fucking beautiful scenery. I can’t get tired of it”
Looking out the window, they can’t help but agree with what Roberto has been talking about. “Yeah, these trips seem to be incredibly refreshing in that way. Being out in nature on the road – there’s nothing like it. It looks stunning out here.”
“I am a trained opera theater singer I can be louder than most speakers we can do this”
He thinks for a second
“You know what? As soon as I get home I’m getting one. Fuck waiting. I’ll just go and do it”
“Nice. I think this can definitely be done. “ Saam nods to encourage him. “Time is of the essence or something like that.“
