Over the past years that I live abroad I saw decrease the number of friendships and contact with family.
It is not that I want it this way, but, and I will say in a diplomatic way, that they have other priorities.
Some said that they prefer phone contact and I am lucky if they calls me two or tree times in a year...
Email cost to much time and I need also some "inspiration" to write it.
For me is Skype perfect and I cherish the contacts that I have.
Is is funny to see that in a world full of new high technology and different ways to communicate the world is closer to you then ever before.
And yet, the distance is more then ever before.
How about you?
Do you have regular contact with the people at home?
In wich way have you contact?
