But surely many Rich/powerful Phills and Brits look down on the rest of there country people. In some ways it maybe more to do with money/power than what countries they been to.
I noticed when my Wife went back she wanted to fit in as she was before. But due to the money she now has in her pocket she finds the family if she so choose would go where she wants etc. Cousins her age are treated very differently by the elders than she is for example.
Its a power which is easy to abuse wih out even realising it.
