Flexible Eye

“I exult in the fact I can see everywhere with a flexible eye; the very notion of home is foreign to me, as the state of foreignness is the closest thing I know to home.”
― Pico Iyer, The Global Soul: Jet Lag, Shopping Malls, and the Search for Home

“One curiosity of being a foreigner everywhere is that one finds oneself discerning Edens where the locals see only Purgatory.”
― Pico Iyer, The Global Soul: Jet Lag, Shopping Malls, and the Search for Home
