So, it's 2019, and I've just arrived back in Australia after a trip to Argentina.
I'm walking through my local shopping centre, and a guy calls out to ask me if I'm from Argentina. Now I fell in love with the country when I was there, so he's got me curious. Why did he think I was from Argentina?
I walked over to talk to him and he tried to sell me something, so I got out of there without finding out.
A couple of days later, in back in the same spot, and this voice calls out to me "Hey, Argentina!". It's the same guy. So this time I just ask him outright why he thinks I'm from Argentina.
He tells me it's because of the Argentinian flag on my necklace (My necklace was a trans flag).
Lmao. That reminds me of those memes where it's like "What is this country 🏳️⚧️? Why do all the hot girls have it in their bio?"
