What it means being a ‟stranger”? Is it living in a different country from the one where we were born? If that is the case, how did we embodying the way of life and thinking of our native country? How this country, where we are originary from, is defining our cultural identity?
Furthermore, being a ‟stranger”, is it living in a very different social environment from the one where we have been educated? In other words, being a ‟stranger” is it likewise having the feeling to be different than everyone else and feeling incomfortable with people who are meeting each day (metro, work place, amusement places, etc.)? If that he case, how these interactions are weakening our social identity?
In brief, we can tell being a ‟stranger” is the embodiment of our native culture and social environment which both are expressing through our interaction with people. This interaction is defining our stranger’s identity same as an alterated and deforming mirror which is reflecting our alterity or worse our exoticism.
We will answer to those questions.
