Answer :

the longest I’ve gone without a cell phone is 2 days, and I hated it. But I will be making an overseas trip late in the summer, and will be unable to take my phone, for varying reasons. I’ll be without for 14 days, I’m sure at first I’ll be going crazy but then it will have a liberating effect.
