His voice comes clear over the line, for once without lag and confusion. He speaks of jobs he's applied to around the world, we speak of the Southern Hemisphere in fall and apartments in the north. You are reminded that this is the life you still crave, that airports are your home no matter the world beyond or the company at your side. They speak of returns, of a city that has changed like the river but maybe there's a way to swim back into the current. Or maybe we take our family to Africa, build something else completely.
You consider a life moored to just the place you were born, a place with no unknowns and no overwhelmig adventures. You reaffirm your devotion to a different life completely. Decide to work like hell to belong to the world.
