Yes...
Being a foreigner in an alien culture is a way of institutionalizing your aloneness, of going public with it. You are no longer failing to meet the expectations and values of your own world, nor do you have to meet those of your adopted one -- or if you do, no one expects you do it perfectly.

Hi Its MOM did you miss me? Just came back from another cruise - this time Key West - my most favourite place in the world, & Tulum in Mexico - my most favourite Mayan ruin, high on a cliff overlooking the sea & reef - the same reef I snorkle when living in Belize since San Pedro BZE was only 65km down the coast. But the stupid hurricane is headed that way again. Just got updated on all your blogs & photos, so happy that Nicloa & Tyrone are in your life to keep you smiling. Does Nicloa still have those blue crocks? LOve MOM
