I think you've hit the nail on the head with what you're trying to convey. I noticed one teensy error in point 1 - 'When know that....' should be 'When you know that....' Sounds trivial I know but important nonetheless. I do like the way you write so looking forward to reading some more! This is a beautiful piece.

You put your finger on a lot of my thoughts about living abroad that I've never really pinned down. I especially agree with #4 - there's nothing like sharing a meal to lead you into sharing lives.
