I find myself missing bits of that foreign country.
I also find that there's a clear discontinuity between times I actually experienced and those I've only read about. (There's an obvious parallel here with places I've actually visited and those I've just read about.) The former I can genuinely miss; the latter I can only imagine.

I guess it's all part of getting older.
