shutitdown: taking one for the anecdote

Results tagged “repatriation”

I am now officially unemployed, and no longer live in the UK. At least, not right now. I realized that a fundamental shift was taking place when I began planning my trip in dollars. After spending the last year in sterling, and the year before in euro, I don't think in dollars anymore. But when I started deciding about how this trip was going to go, I found myself budgeting in dollars and pricing things in dollars. This was not deliberate. It is interesting, though. I think I'm perhaps shifting my brain back towards America.

But when filling out my customs forms, I came to the question "What city to do live in?" I have no answer to that. I also have no answer for "Occupation?" When I checked into my hotel today I struggled over "Address?" for ten minutes. Where do I live today?
