I guess the 1st question is what is the (your) definition of home.
For me, as the 6th generation in my small village in Wales it’s easy. No argument.
On June 1st I go for my annual 2 week holiday there. Do I get emotional? No. I like it there but I also like it here in Singapore. So I am moderately happy flying west and same coming back. I often think it’s sad that people come to Asia for the wrong reason, feel homesick etc. Not a good space to be in.
Of course, put into perspective, both my parents and all uncles/aunties now dead. No kids/never married, 2 brothers only, lost touch with 95% of childhood friends. In fact my 2 best friends (I knew for 40 years) have also died (young, 45, 64).
Can’t think of anything more to say.
