It wasn't the adventure of train travel, but the chance meeting with the man who eventually propose me six month later, that made the trip so memorable.
It was a beautiful afternoon. The sun was streaming in through the windows, and I had views of the water and the mountains.
Caught between the underground and the sunlight. Drops of sunlight dancing on my body. On the pages of books. Then there is darkness. My eyes unhappily adjust to the changing phases of light.
I never knew that scene was set, but it was his quick thinking that got him and me seated together.
"When I was waiting to get my seat assignment in the station, I see this beautiful woman walk into the station and get a ticket," He says. "So I go out of line, acted casual and got next to her in the line."
Lucky for him his plan worked and the two strangers were seated across from each other at a table, giving him the chance to offer to buy his fellow traveler coffee during the trip.
The rest is history.
