We've moved to Valencia Spain and it bugs me when other foreigners talk about being an expat .. so I love talking about that we became immigrants to Spain 10 years ago and I love going to immigrant meet-ups! Heheh!

And those nomadic laptop warriors, they are technically "migrants." I have dared to call westerners this word only a few times, and it was never taken kindly. However, like you said, I'm okay with vocabulary too. I tell westerners we are migrants with immigration dreams, and we generally get blank stares. I can tell the wheels are turning as they ponder
"How can a white guy be a migrant?".
Woah. That exceeds all racist talking I have ever heard of.
In their defense, no one has ever physically let those words fall out of their mouth. I do however, feel I see them thinking it with their eyes.
