We are back home after having Christmas at home.
Meaning we are back in Hot Home after spending Christmas at More Home. We also drove past Home Home, just to make sure our tenants hadn’t burnt it to the ground.
Or we are back in Singapore after spending Christmas in Australia. We also drove past the house we used to live in and still own.
Confusing for other people but perfectly understandable to other expats.
When you move out of your country the definition of home expands. Home is the residence where you live in your new country but home is also your home country.
It’s where my heart is but it’s also where my stuff is.


Yes, we get it! For me, home is where my dog and husband are (not necessarily in that order)
I get it too. We are going home in April and looking forward to driving past home too
I’m not an expat, but I love your definitions. ‘Home’ is kinda nebulous and concrete all at the same time
Yes!! So understand! Welcome back!
