There's the classic warning about living abroad that, yes, you'll come out of it richer and with broader horizons, but no matter where you are after, you'll always be homesick for a place you're not currently at.

And that's true.

What they don't tell you is, even if you're pretty okay on homesickness most days, you'll still get cravings for food which simply doesn't exist once you cross the border.
