A friend of a friend is in town and he is from Australia. My fried asked his if he was going home for Christmas, and he said nope, it is 115 degrees at home right now. The cost and time needed to make the trip is just too high.
One of the clerks at a local convenience where I buy beer is from Nepal. He was gone for over a month, and suddenly back at work. I asked him where he had been, and he said he went home to visit family. I asked how long of a trip is it for him. He said it was 24 hours of travel time, not counting time waiting for the connecting flights, buses, trains and taxis and a several hour walk to get to his family home.
