questions people have asked me recently that i want to remember:

"Are those your real teeth?" -Ayshe in the store insinuating that I had dentures.

"How many horses does your family have?" -Albein as he smoked a cigarette at his table.

"Do they have songs in America?" -A Roma teenager on a ride down the mountain.

Bimo:" If the babas don't where shalvari (traditional attire) then what to they wear?" Me: "Jeans and sweaters." Bimo: no words, only a gaping mouth.
