Single-Digit Degrees of Separacion


My friend Mare Milin from Croatia had an art show last weekend in Santa Monica. I know Mare through my friend Josh from New York. They are both working on a Croatian documentary about Tesla. Paolo is an Italian Fulbrighter studying film at USC, and he is making a documentary film about a Croatian war veteran with post-traumatic stress syndrome. Of course, I thought it would be great for Mare and Paolo to meet each other. To add to the Croatian mix, the Croatian consulate woman that Paolo invited to the event, brought the girl on the far left - who coincidentally has a best friend that Paolo teaches in his T.A. led discussion at USC.

Very small mundo.

Only on Earth do we experience these single-digit degrees of "separacion."

Oh yeah, and I almost forgot the clincher. The girl on the far left, turned out to be one of Mare's second cousins - long lost in Los Angeles via Belgrade and the Croatian coast.
