Are you hanging our with your phone or your friends/family? 你在跟手機約會嗎？

Guilty? 

​When traveling around the world, first thing first, I observe. I observe the culture, custom, and human interaction. Interestingly, I've noticed that in Asia, A LOT of people are hanging out with their smartphones rather than talking to the friends/family that are on the dinner table right beside. This has been bugging me personally for a while. Undoubtedly, I start to ask the question "Why are we out having dinner? It makes more sense for you to stay home and play with your phone. What's really the point of this hangout?"

To be clear, this does not only happen in Asia, it is everywhere. Just more obvious. 

到一個新的國家時，我第一件會先做的事就是觀察當地的文化、習俗、還有人與人之間的互動。回來亞洲這次，馬上就發現了一件讓我悶悶不解的事，“為什麼大家出來約會時，不是在跟你相約的人聊天互動，而是在滑手機呢？那要滑手機幹嘛不在家裡話就好了呢？”

這個現象很明顯的不是只有在亞洲，但比率整個高好多啊！
