I used to run away from school to my village. But later, I went to the U.S. for studies and lost touch.

I do a lot of traveling overseas.

I've traveled around the world.

I have been a foreigner all my life, first as a daughter of diplomats, then as a political refugee and now as an immigrant in the U.S. I have had to leave everything behind and start anew several times, and I have lost most of my extended family.

I do a lot of traveling around the world.

I spent years overseas. I spent 11 years abroad.

Living abroad has heightened my interest in how foreigners regard the strange places we encounter.
