Free Falafal!

Ok, ok, so I haven't gotten any free falafal yet, however, I'm still trying. One of the things that I knew would make my time here easier and safer is to find some people who I would see everyday to kind of watch out for me. They can be a store clerk, a bus driver, a security guard, or even a falafal cook. :) Well, it was kind of hard to find someone here that I didn't think was sketchy but I finally found some people that I thought would look out for my best interests.

The guys I found just happen to be the owners of the falafal stand across from the main gate of UJ. Every day, Haley, Rob, and I go get some falafal and sodas and just chat about the day. Well, we became such regulars that they guys now recognize us and even laugh as we try to use our broken Arabic! The best part is that they have even started giving us free food. Every day we get some fresh french fries and some pita chips to go along with our sandwiches. I feel like I have become so attached that I should warn them I am leaving in a few days but I think that might just make the whole situation weird.

Anyways, it works great for me so I think I will just enjoy my last week of $.60 lunches. As long as I don't end up with a marrige proposal from one of my new found friends. . . ;)
