Leaving Again

Facebook says I have 544 friends. Today. Tomorrow I may have more, or less, depending on which way the wind blows. Some are caught in the (inter)net, but most are people I've had at least one conversation with. These friends are my village, readily available from a handy pocket-device where I can access them at all times. But as I pack my bags to make another journey to someplace else for however long it will take me, I start to realize; 544 friends on Facebook is worth little compared to one in person. With this I'd like to say to my friends in Tromsø: It's been a wonderful two years, I'll miss you all very much. Please come find me sometime. In person.
