Three Homes
2013 June 18
Every time I come back from a long trip, I can’t help but feel a little lost, a little empty.
Today, I returned to Madison after a very long 17-day business/personal trip and feel it.
Feels like something’s missing… an anchor.
- The Bay Area isn’t really home anymore.
- Madison is as close as it gets, but with the frequent travel, doesn’t quite take the same meaning.
- Airplanes, rental cars, and hotels are sort of like a third home to me.
I don’t have that sense of place.
With all the moving around and little permanence, I guess it’s nice to have the internet and social media to help lessen the gap a bit.
Being able to catch up on what friends are doing definitely helps, in some kind of comforting way.
I don’t feel like I miss as much back home, all three of them.
