“Giving up on the drive to succeed is a good part of what being an expat is all about. If you travel all the way to the Caribbean Sea, you probably have already decided to trade the dog-eat-dog competition of modern living for a hammock on the sand.”

“Life had not paused while you were gone. It had rearranged itself around your absence. By the time you stay long enough to see it all together, you begin to understand that you are standing between two versions of home. The one that continued without you, and the one that grew within you.”
