Find them idling in cafes in Venice or Rome, wearing an elegant hat to keep off the sun, reading a local newspaper and draining a glass of red wine or chilled beer. They've probably acquired a flat near the centre for next to nothing and they are earning their money in tourism, possibly in teaching or medicine, and in further flung countries, engineering, mining or surveying.
Find them also in the Middle East. The Gulf States attract them. Here they also learn the language and make a point of becoming friendly with people and their families native to this area, very much enjoying the courteous mien of Quataris or Bahrainis andj the ‘tomorrow will do' lifestyle.
