Thanks for the mention. I must, however, give credit where it is due, the quote about going home every day comes from Ron Lubensky, a Canadian expat living in Australia.

I moved around a lot growing up, including living my first years of my life in Tripoli, Libya, where I was evacuated in the 6-day war. I spent K and 1st grade in Buenos Aires, Argentina. My father later lived overseas and I traveled to visit him in Norway, and Ghana, Africa. I went to over 13 schools growing up. I never quite felt as though I fit in. This past year I visited the Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC. I could barely make it through - it was so powerful. I can't imagine how it must have been for those displaced from their countries. I am settled now in a lovely town that I've lived in since I was 16. I can't imagine living anywhere else, but still love to travel. It is a good feeling to finally feel "at home." Thank you for sharing your thoughts...Tina Sylvia,

I am settled now in a lovely town that I’ve lived in since I was 16. I can’t imagine living anywhere else, but still love to travel. It is a good feeling to finally feel “at home.” Thank you for sharing your thoughts…Tina
