Basically someone living in a country where they don't have citizenship. Usually temporarily.

I had a similar experience as a man in China where guys would look over the stalls to "get a look at me." I felt it was more curiosity than anything else so I didn't get overly offended, but it is creepy, and surprising, as hell.
