Meeting housemate in foreign country

understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.
Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.
While at university, on impulse I took a trip to St. Petersburg, Russia. One day walking through a market, I heard my name being called and turned to see my housemate from University who had also took a trip to St. Petersburg. Neither of us knew the other was going there, and we met in a random market. The funny thing was that as soon as I heard my name, I thought, "Oh, that'll be Ed, I thought there was a good chance I'd bump into him". Weird.
