I have had many travel buddies. One of the best ones was in Australia. We met on a tour of Fraiser Island and we drove around there for 2 days and then he gave me a ride back to Brisbane where he was living and then I went on to Sydney. I tried to contact him a few times but I never got in touch with him. He was a great guy and made me laugh for days. If I knew him longer I might have found out he was a real person and real life might have gotten in the way, so probably best that we never spoke again.
