foreigner

Migrant, immigrant, foreigner. I have been all of these things. I have also learnt that there is foreigner and foreigner. Many of us have stories to tell about how our nationality or appearance affected a passage going through a border control, travelling abroad or simply when interacting with locals as tourists when visiting another country.. However, in society as a whole, the frequency with which migrant and immigrant in particular have become increasingly associated with conflict, rejection and even death, incites me to reassess who I am and take a fresh look at my status as a foreigner in this chilling new world. A tale of experience.
