Home isn’t always a place: Building inner stability Abroad

This is how it all started…

“Everyone asks how I like it here. I don’t even know how to answer. My body’s here, but my heart still feels stuck between two worlds.” – Soojin, South Korea

You’ve unpacked the suitcases. Found a favorite café. You even say “thank you” in the local language without overthinking it.

But still—something feels… untethered.

That’s because “home” was never just a physical place. It’s an emotional one. And right now, yours feels far away.

The grief of leaving home

Leaving home isn’t just excitement and adventure. It’s subtle grief.
You miss the ease of familiar streets. The background noise of your native language. The way your family’s laughter sounded in the kitchen.

But here’s the reframe: this ache is proof of love. And love is portable.

How to grow roots where you are – Making your home “homey”

You don’t have to rush. Start small:

• What daily rituals make me feel safe?
• Who or what here feels like an anchor?
• How can I carry “home” inside me, even as I adapt?
