“I realized something

that changed everything

for me”

When you start travelling, you wonder if you

will ever feel at home in your new country,

afraid that you might get homesick after a while

and simply never get used to it.

In the past 10 years, I've lived in 4 different

countries and travelled to many more, and these

thoughts have crossed my mind more than once,

too.

This feeling goes away sooner than you realize;

however, to get that at-home feeling sooner, if

you want, you can follow some habits that have

helped me along the way.

I've always wondered how I could feel at home

outside of my home country and what does

'home' mean to me in the first place. I was raised

in the Netherlands, but it never really felt like

'home' to me; I kept asking myself "why", and I

even felt a little bit guilty about it. How could I

feel this way when, you know, I grew up there?

“When looking for a

feeling of home,

it can also help to

do things that

are familiar to you”
