Farewell Syria :)

The wonderful world of Syrian phases that we have heard over and over ......

"Welcome" ....... thousands of times!
"You have beautiful eyes" .......... um, thanks, and no I don't want to buy another headscarf, sorry!
"Where are you from, ah Kiwis, Kiwis are very beautiful" ......... they must be referring to the country :P
"Tea?" ......... thank you but no, I am already rather warm :)
"Come into my shop" ....... I would but you only sell sweets, but OK, if you want me too :)
"Smoke? No?! You don't smoke?!" ......... shock horror, how could one not want to smoke when everyone else does continuously.
