I was in Penang the other day and, as is my wont, I started chatting with the taxi driver as he skillfully wove in and out of late afternoon traffic to send me to Penang International Airport. Somehow, we got to talking about hobbies, when he suddenly asked me to look at the pocket behind the front passenger’s seat…and out came a sketch book!
Well whaddya know? The guy’s got some talent, despite not having had any training whatsoever before. He said it’s just his way of passing the time while waiting for passengers or while in a queue.
This just goes to show that you never know what magic you can encounter when you take the chance on a conversation with a random stranger…
