"The traveling self is here both the self that moves physically from one place to another . . . and the self that embarks on an undetermined journeying practice, having constantly to negotiate between home and abroad, native culture and adopted culture, or more creatively speaking, between a here, a there, and an elsewhere." —Trinh T. Minh-ha
