In nomadism (as in digital nomad) this is quite salient to me, relevant to communication with relations, colleagues and potential ones (i.e. job/gig economic opportunities) across time zones and countries. I am constantly on the lookout for tools that create the feeling of geographic salience without actually being in the same area. I’ve learned to avoid answering the remotely-asked question ‘so where are you anyways’ for as long as possible, for answering candidly usually ends any follow-up communications (“this person is ‘out there’, not serious, etc”).
