I have to say that whenever I tell people that I am from San Luis Obispo, California– people usually are like, “Where is that exactly?”  This only happens when I am in the USA.  Since I have been in South Africa, I tell people that I am from California.

Today at my work at Total Media, I had the opportunity to sit in on a meeting with a representative from  Media 24, who owns a lot of the major magazines in South Africa (Elle, Fairlady, etc.) So– I was introduced as a public relations intern from the United States, and she asked me, “which part of the US?”  I said, “California,” and from a really small town– and she asked “San Luis Obispo?”  I was REALLY surprised!  She said that she actually traveled through SLO. 

You would think that after flying 20 hours, across a very big ocean, that you wouldn’t meet someone that has visited a small town like San Luis.  But — as I remember — this happened to me when our family went to  Tazmania –amazing how people really do travel!!! 🙂 

It is indeed a small world.

Have a great day!

Best Wishes,

Karen 🙂
