This is pertinent to me right now, as I am traveling.

This is a long trip, 4 months, covering different spots.

I miss not having my own space.

One big problem that I need to deal with is WiFi for my laptop. Often there is little or no connectivity where I am. I am investigating techno-fixes to this. They are available but can be expensive.

But how do I have a private conversation with someone in a cafe? There’s not only the noise issue, but also I fear I’ll be disturbing others.

To those of you who use cell phones all of the time, how do you deal with this issue?
