For me, there have been times when I have been abroad and saw people wearing tshirts with my state's sports team logo or you stop to have coffee and it turns out that the couple at the next table is from a city your know well. It's quite nostalgic!<br />Bella<br />http://gypsyroxylee.wordpress.com/Bellahttp://gypsyroxylee.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639138503200447572.post-35878446512055112692010-10-05T09:53:49.222+02:002010-10-05T09:53:49.222+02:00Hahahaha Anita just saw your comment here.

Nunca fui una "expat" pero los 50 días que anduve viajando en el exterior me sirvieron para darme cuenta que MI lugar era acá, más allá de todo... es duro estar tan lejos, pero el amor te lo deja sobrellevar (Ademas estás comunicada con tu grupete, que te mantiene al tanto de todo y está cuando aflojás aunque sea por medio de una PC)<br />Besos!!!Patricia Sgrignuolinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639138503200447572.post-49602676984788881522010-09-07T09:31:00.179+02:002010-09-07T09:31:00.179+02:00Gracias, Gaby!!

Ya nos habías contado un poquito, pero escrita así tiene otro sabor...<br />Yo también fuí expat por un tiempo, y cuando algo me recordaba a mi tierra, me emocionaba. Tal vez por eso intentaba que no me pasara tan seguido, esquivaba ponerme sentimental. No me llevé ni un CD de música argentina, por ejemplo. Ni un libro, ni una fto vieja, nada. Quería empezar de cero en otro lugar... Y claro que extrañaba mi música y mis "cosas"... pero para mí funcionó bien así.<br />Me encantó la historia completa. Yo creo que por amor se hace todo lo que uno jamás se imaginó que podría llegar a hacer. <br />Un abrazo y felicitaciones por esta entrada. :o)<br /><br />Claudia Gibson<br />(too lazy to write in English, sorry ;o))Claudiagibbnoreply@blogger.com
