<human>: Provide a brief overview of the text.

Long story short: 

About a month ago I was traveling in Asia. When going through the security check, where you have to remove electronic devices from backpacks, I accidentally grabbed the wrong laptop once I was through the security gate. I only realised that once I arrived at the hotel.

After calling the airport and the airline, which did not have any laptops in their lost&found, I assumed that the owner of this laptop was probably carrying mine around unknowingly. 

His name was on the lock screen of the computer. I was not able to find him through facebook. I had however heard miracle stories from reddit. I flipped through the default subreddits and decided that /tifu was the best place to get as many viewers as possible. 

I took a picture of the lock screen, stated his name and in what country he was traveling. 

The mods did not like that and deleted the post about 2 hours after I submitted. Luckily, one redditor said his friend was traveling in Asia and that a person by the same name as the owner of the laptop was tagged in the same photos. 

This kind redditor was able to contact his friend, send ask him about the owner and send the picture of the lock screen as verification. 
The friend was having dinner with the owner of the laptop and sent the redditor his phone number, who sent it to me. 

The Asian sim-card could not call to the USA (I'm not from the US), but the owner had an iphone. I was able to contact him through FaceTime and two hours later we met up and exchanged computers. Good, since he was leaving the next morning. 

I am sorry that I have delayed this post for so long. The original one was posted from my friends account and I thought it would be better to conclude the story from that account also. 

Anyways. Thank you reddit and thank you /tifu. Miracles do happen.
