Islamabad - 2

We met these guys in a dvd&kitch store. They bought a movie and gave it to us. This is just one of many encounters in Pakistan with random people who go out of their way to be kind or helpful.

A few hours earlier I had the greatest pedicure experience ever. Not because of the pedicure itself, but because of the workers in the parlour. It was three girls working there, and I was the only customer. One of them spoke some English, and we started talking about Valentines Day, men, marriage and the like. Perhaps that was what inspired one of them to put on some Bollywood music, and soon after we were dancing. Totally unexpected, and because of that, totally great.
