The Universal Language of Starbucks

Today a woman came up to me and asked for a restroom. And by "asked for a restroom", I mean she approached me, shyly got my attention, and said in a soft, thickly-accented voice, "Restroom?"

I shook my head and said, "No, sorry." She looked quite worried. I said, "Starbucks" and pointed across the street. Her face lit up: She understood!

Ah, the universal language of Starbucks. I don't know where she was from, but they have Starbucks there!
