Foreign Perspectives

I could understand if people forgot a few things if they were in for a week or more. After all, you settle into a place when you stay that long so you’ve the cases unpacked and the drawers and wardrobes full of stuff.

But, usually, it’s not the long stayers who forget things: it’s almost always those who’ve only stayed for a night. Why they bother unpacking for an overnight stay confuses me but they do leave behind a surprisingly large amount of stuff.

Just in the last week, we’ve had glasses, clothes and even a computer. What was most confusing was the time when one family left behind what seemed almost a suitcase full of clothes. How on earth could they not miss that?
