Unusual neighbors

I haven't had many unusual neighbors. (I suppose I'm lucky.) Back when we lived in New Brunswick, for a year or two--just before I moved to Toronto--there was a German chef living near us.  I think he was part of the German community in Czech Sudetenland that was forced to leave en masse at the end of World War II.  

He had a very friendly Korean wife.  She enjoyed picking strawberries so much that on one occasion she offered to do it for free, but they thought she was a crank.  They eventually moved to Kitchener, I think.

I don't really know my present-day neighbors.
