Vienna, taking photos on the Danube river, a kid comes to me and ask me something in German. I know no German and try to reply in English, but he knows no English. Somehow we manage to have a very rough conversation, mainly using gestures and guessing words, he want to see my camera, what it is capable of and such. I ask for a pose and he wants and is joined by another kid. I take the photo when notice they talk with each other in… Romanian! A language all of us talk perfectly… natively. We talk a bit and then I have to go.
