Re: Where do you call "Home"?
When we were coming into land over London the last time, I got the most enormous lump in my throat and tears welled up in my eyes. I didn't expect that sort of raw emotion at all, but the whole time we were in England, I felt as though I belonged. So that's it for me, England is my home, it's where I feel the most comfortable and content.

Re: Where do you call "Home"?
i probably should stop myself here but it's something i have to ask
when you refer to "people back home" don't you ever stop to consider that "home" is where you're at currently?
i don't mean to pick you in particular, it's something i notice regularly and seems strange to me

Home when I'm in MA is the UK...when in FL home is MA....home is just an easy word to use when talking about England....

Re: Homesick in Sydney
home is england where my friends & family live & everthing is familiar
home is also NZ where me, hubby & kids have chosen to make a new home.
in essence i feel its like when you move out of you parents house & into your own house, but when you go back to mothers for sunday dinner its all cosy & familair, but when you've had enough you go back to your own place & enjoy your own stuff.

I was a little in limbo over this for a while when I first moved.
Home for me is the here and the now.

Re: Where do you call "Home"?
heck, didn't realise this was still going
i guess i've learnt that some people have a sense of belonging to a place they call "home"
but still for me, it does come down to a very basic concept... home is where i live
