Abroad

Got my mobile phone bill today and had some roaming charges, indicating I had been abroad. Not. I haven't been travelling since I was on Tenerife some 6 months ago. Until I realized I was in Italy the other weekend. Funny that. When you live in a little country like Switzerland with France, Italy, Germany, Liechtenstein and Austria in the immediate vicinity it doesn't feel like you're abroad when there. Or perhaps it's me feeling I'm abroad all the time being an immigrant and all...
