Cordelia Roberts from the U.K. was shocked to find a girl that looks just like her while studying abroad at Bremen University in Germany, according to Buzzfeed.
Roberts and Ciara Murphy, from Ireland, have now dubbed themselves “twin strangers” after they met during a night out, according to the U.K. publication The Independent.
“I didn't know anyone coming to Bremen, I didn't know anyone here already... I was truly just alone in a different country for the first time in my life. Pretty scary,” Roberts stated in a video of the two students that has now gone viral.
Murphy added, “I came over here, I was totally alone, in an airport [with] three big bags, no clue where I was going... but then... it started to get better."

Everyone else seemed to be aware of how much the women looked alike, except for Roberts and Murphy.
“I was going on nights out, people asked me did I come here with a sister or twin and I didn’t know what they were talking about in the beginning… after a while I realized that they were talking about Cordelia," stated Murphy.
After posting a photo together on Facebook, the girls are now reportedly being known as the “twins” on campus. Regardless of how many comments they get about having the same face, the girls aren’t getting sick of the attention just yet.
“It’s quite a good conversation starter,” explained Murphy.
“To say that I have someone that looks the exact same as me, but isn’t related.”
