A tourist’s guide across time
Home is the place one returns to. Our birthplace holds memories, emotions, opinions, and important milestones of our lives. We return there because we long for safety, isolation, and understanding. We stay because we feel a rush of euphoria, love, and nostalgic sounds. At some point, these qualities go into negation and begin to itch. Whether our departure from home is motivated by curiosity or is a form of defection from the toxic influences of our family, perhaps there always comes a time to take that one step further, that one step where we go out across the threshold of home and look around more than we look behind us.
