'Soundest girl in the world' reunites lad with driving licence he lost on holiday in Magaluf

A student is searching for a girl who reunited him with the driving licence he lost while on holiday in Magaluf. Dan Knight, 21, was gutted after losing his provisional driving licence while on holiday with his mates in the Majorcan party resort, the Daily Record reports.

But after returning home to Sheffield, the history and politics student was left speechless when a handwritten letter from 'Kirsty in Scotland' - and his ID - showed up at his door. In the letter Kirsty explains she found Dan's driving licence outside a hotel in Magaluf, but was told Dan wasn't staying there.

The Good Samaritan had tried to find him on social media, but ended up taking the ID home to send in the post.

The letter read: "Hello, I found this outside the Martinique Hotel in Magaluf on Tuesday. I checked with the hotel and you weren't staying there. Checked social media but couldn't find you.

"So I brought it home to Scotland to send on to you when I got home on Wednesday. I hope this finds you. Kirsty."

A gobsmacked Dan is now desperate to find mystery holidaymaker Kirsty, whom he has dubbed "the soundest girl in the world", but has had no luck so far.

He told the Record: "I returned home and it arrived a few days later. I couldn't stop grinning when I read it. It was sent with a first class stamp as well! It's such a nice gesture.

"No one knows who she is and I'm desperate to say thank you properly. Kirsty, wherever you are, you are the soundest girl in the world."

Dan posted about the sweet gesture on Twitter, and his tweet has received over 14,000 likes. He added: "These days you never expect someone to go out of their way to do something for a stranger. It has restored my faith in humanity."
