Tourists take Edinburgh homeless man to Sweden for Christmas
An Edinburgh homeless man has told of the "incredible act of kindness" of two Swedish tourists who invited him to their home for Christmas.
Jimmy Fraser was begging on George Street when he was asked for directions by Annis Lindkvist and her sister Emma.
They struck up a friendship during their trip and swapped numbers before flying home to Sagmyra.
Mr Fraser told the BBC Scotland news website: "The next thing I knew I was on a plane to Sweden."

Re: Tourists take Edinburgh homeless man to Sweden for Christmas
TY ...what an uplifting/amazing event; random - chance encounters and a following act of such grand kindness. Sure it's just one story, but from that one story - perhaps it will trigger more humans to slow down and really take a look at the humanity struggling all around us!scrat wrote:An Edinburgh homeless man has told of the "incredible act of kindness" of two Swedish tourists who invited him to their home for Christmas.
