This has occurred to me from time to time when I think back on living in Germany as an American in the 80s and 90s. I came back to the States in '94, just as the internet was starting to kick off. The experience I had those 10 years, “in a far away place cut off from everything familiar,” doesn’t exist any more unless you’re going to the most isolated places on the planet.
