i'm not to say i'm any better(as i write this my phone is sitting across from me at my desk). However, i'm trying to use it less and less when i'm out and about. when i first arrived in france i didn't have any internet on my phone and it was actually quite liberating. Rather than to people and find my way around independently. next time you're out with your friends, put your phone a way and see how long you can last without it.
