<human>: I'll start.

I had the privilege of traveling to the Sahara in Southern Morocco and riding through the sands on the back of a camel. Amazing experience in itself considering I was born 6,000 miles away. But one moment struck me on the trip as my "Holy crap, it's the 21st century."

On the way down we stopped at a small Moroccan town on the side of the road for a quick bathroom break. Stopped the van next to some run down buildings and let people out to find a place to piss.

While waiting, my friend and I struck up a conversation with some local kids, around 7-8 years old. They looked like typical Moroccan kids from such a small town - run down clothes, sandals, and dirt on their faces. We were using our broken arabic (two years of study) to ask them simple questions like their names, do they like school, etc.

At this point the kids ask me "Barcelona or Madrid?" which I thought was hilarious, that these kids idolize international teams of another country (the rivalry is surprisingly huge here in Morocco). But then the kid blows me away with two words:

عندك الفيسبوك ?

Simply translated, he asked me "You have Facebook?"

A 7-8 year old kid in Morocco had a facebook profile and wanted to be my friend. The world of globalization hit me like a brick.

We wrote down our names and became friends online.

All I could think was "This is the 21st century."

...

Anybody else have any stories?

<bot>: 7-8 year old Moroccan boy on the side of the road in a small town asks in Arabic if we can be Facebook friends. We're now connected continents apart.
