I thing I saw a glimpse of you while watching a Youtube video on the Via Del Plata last night. The video was entitled Hotel Califorina - Via Del Plata Day 8 made by Ant Hikes. He said he met an Armena from England and there was a shot of people eating dinner and there was a glimpse of a person that looked very much like you.

Ha! Good eye, yes that's me. How funny. In that video I was literally ambling alone not far behind him and I took the photo of him that you see in the intro! I met Ant on day 5 or 6 I think, very early on. We walked together a bit and kept bumping into each other probably for the next week or longer even. Gosh love seeing the videos again, so many memories!

We are only up to Day 8 of Ant's videos so maybe we'll hopefully see you again in the later days?

I'm not totally sure actually! I don't remember, you'll have to let me know if you do? :)

We watched the remainder of Ant's videos to Astorga. There might have been one more shot of you walking behind him. It was just a fleeting glimpse of people, too short to be able to identify anyone. Ant waves his camera around uncomfortably fast, sometimes during the videos. My dad taught me to pan from one side to another side slowly when videoing. So if you are panning from say right to left over a 180 degree pan, pan slowly so the viewer doesn't get vertigo. Ant's videos are worth watching, so thank you to him!

Ahhh my fame was short-lived haha. I think I may have to have a go at video next time, maybe without the vertigo :) It's nice to have that "live" memory!
