What Home Means To Me

Home means to have a harbour

Today is my turn to Pin it Forward.  Have you heard of Pinterest? Basically it’s a site like weheartit that allows you to save pictures that you find online. You can categorize your boards and the pictures are displayed in a great way. I have 10 invites for the first 10 who e-mail me. I’ve made a pinboard with photos that represent what home means to me. To find the source of each photo, please go to my pinterest pinboard and click the images there. I’m forwarding this to Florence Oliver, so go by her blog tomorrow to see what home means to her!

    Oh gosh, I have thought about this quite a bit. I have moved 5000+ miles away from my hometown 3 times now. This time it is permanent as far as I can tell.

    I guess the only conclusion I can come to is, it’s wherever I choose to feel comfortable. The more I root myself makes it feel more like home. A reason to go back there again and again.
    Although I have to say I relate a lot with where I’m from. I’m different from the people who live there, but also different from the people I’m around now. Moving to another country really forces you to look at how much you identify with where you’re from.

    This song is a good example of making home wherever you are. I love it.

    all these photos, well actually this whole post, is wonderful. I especially love what you wrote: “Home means to feel safe in a comfortable bed”. Couldn’t agree with you more.

    Home means an adorable boy, two cuddly Shih Tzu puppies, warm blankets, a full fridge, a half-full sketchbook and an amazing colorful office, long wooded trails and the ocean’s waves.
