Two poignant moments upon a recent trip back to the city that I used to live in:

1) Stopping through the (Asian) bakery near the resthome where I used to work and where I always used to stop through to get these tasty little buns before work, it was super super busy, but the one (younger) (Asian) cashier woman recognized me and was like, "Nice to see you again."

2) When I was at the resthome to see a few people, a (Tibetan) coworker steps out of the elevator, sees me, and greets me in (Tibetan), and it makes me realize that I hadn't heard or thought about (Tibetan) or that particular greeting in a while, and "it brought me back."
