Trying to find a guy i met on a klm flight

porcelainqueen

This is probably a long shot, but the internet can be magical sometimes.

Sometime between 2004 and 2012 during the summer, I was on a KLM flight from Los Angeles to Amsterdam with my mom. I was around 11–15 years old. We ended up talking with a really kind Dutch guy who was sitting in the window seat while I was in the middle. He had a noticeable Dutch accent, very fair skin, blonde curly hair, and blue eyes, and I remember he was sharply dressed. From what I remember, he said he had studied in Los Angeles and was flying back home to Amsterdam after finishing his study abroad program or to visit family. He seemed to be in his early 20s at the time. My mom mostly asked him questions about Amsterdam and the airport, and he was really friendly and helpful explaining things to us during the flight. We exchanged contact info at the time, but somehow it got lost afterward. I’ve randomly wondered over the years what happened to him and whether he remembers that conversation. If by some miracle you see this, or someone knows a Dutch guy who studied in LA and remembers chatting with a mom and daughter on a KLM flight from LA to Amsterdam sometime between 2004–2012, I’d love to reconnect and hear how life has been for you.

I was also headed elsewhere so I couldn't exchange info that much.
