It's a small world

My name is Elliot Bullock and I live in Dover, UK. I am currently travelling around Australia and 3 months into the trip I travelled to Melbourne where I stayed in one of many hostels there called Urban Central. One morning whilst eating my breakfast in the kitchen I saw a man that looked familiar but couldn't place him. At first I thought I recognised him from a previous hostel we had stayed in (as it's common for me to bump into people we have met from other hostels). Then I told myself I shouldn't think any more of it, as it was probably a stranger and I guess you see strangers that look like people you know all the time. But then he wandered through again with a friend that also looked very familiar. It then clicked, the second man to enter (the friend) was Matt Wraight. I used to live on the same hill as (Priory Hill) and who I went to the same school as although being 4 school years ahead of me, back in little old Dover, Kent, England. When I told my girlfriend that I knew this random man stood in the kitchen from home she at first thought I was mistaken but after a quick facebook search, it was confirmed Matt and his friend were in Melbourne. Coinsidence or not?
