You know when something is important to you, when all your energies and attention is focused on that, and you stop noticing all that is around you.
In a foreign land, with strangers all around you, it is tempting to retreat back into your bubble, into your circle of comfort. However, you can never fully appreciate a foreign land if you stick in that bubble, something I learnt when I stayed abroad for a period of time.
Still, you can tell when someone is important to you. It makes you more willing to take that step into the bubble.
