Localized Foreigners



Something you never know without living there.
It’s like “roommate” philosophy,you don’t see all aspects of a person unless you live with him/ her.

The matter of being insiders or outsiders happens everywhere, back to the ages when airplanes didn’t exist, when taking boat from one place to another cost numerous days, when exchanging knowledge spent ¼ of life,
it seemed very easy to define whether you are “in” or “out”.

Being localized is like, well… a real mother, the one who gave the birth and raised the child. You suffered the damn pain, sacrifice your body shape, and freedom, only until then, you swear you will love and protect this little thing even when he/she grows up, because you will never forget “those unforgettable moments”, because you truly experienced.

Let’s say every place where you have stayed for a certain period of time had something to do with destiny, like super-mario, you fulfill the mission in this section, then next one...etc.

The advantage of being a foreigner is that the local people would usually excuse your 'poor' spoken dialogue, uncomfortable gestures, slightly stammered. However, if you stay longenough, these 'fun' things become 'funny' things, the next step is to decided whether to 'fix' it, or....'abandon ' it, anyway, both suggests getting yourself out from the circumstance.

What about me?

Haha....

Just like what portuguese love to say..."it's still in the process".
