Where do you call "home?"
This has the potential to be a terribly boring thread, but no one would be surprised at me.
Where do you call "home?" This could be where you were born, or where you live now, or the one place that you identify with "home." But if you click your heels three times, where do you picture as "home?" For me, it is not the town I was where born, nor the town in which I currently live. It is the town where I grew up, Auburn, Alabama.

I call my true home whenever I'm either with Galaxygirl and her family or we are with my family, (our roots)... everywhere else is just a living space.

Well, I lived in the same house in Great Neck, NY from birth to age 20 (except for a brief college stint in Buffalo). I still go back to visit there every other month or so. I've always considered that "home". I guess I was pretty lucky to have that kind of one stable place to live while growing up, instead of having to move a few times during childhood. Even though I'm married with a kid and another on the way, we have lived in 2 apartments since we've been together and neither feels very much like a home. I'd love to buy a house, and put down roots, but I have about 12 years to go in the Navy, so it might be a while before I have anything resembling what I had as a kid.

Home for me is the city that I live in. I've been born and spent most of my live here and, for some time now, I have this magical relationship with the place, God knows why. When it all comes down to the facts, it's an awful city - it's the capital of my country, it's big, dirty and smelly, yet I find places here that feel right, not to mention that they are somehow tied to various memories form different stages of my live.

Talk nerdy to me
Location: Flint, MI

Born and raised in mid-Michigan, and have lived in various places around here.
I have traveled to nearly every part of Michigan and will always consider it home. Yeah the winters suck, we only have two seasons: winter and construction, and well, there is the Lions and Tigers to deal with, but I still love it here. The good things about Michigan: You can show people where you live by pointing to your hand, we can "leave the country" for a day by going to Canada, and the best part... The Redwings

i have to say I really don't have a home.. I was born in WA, grew up in TN, and most of my family lives in Oregon (or has plans to move back)..
that is all pretty wacky... so to me, currently I have no home.. which is why I hope for a job that will let me either goto Europe for a bit, or Canada.. Let me see and live in other parts of the world.. experience a little more, before I finally decide where exactly my home will be.

I've always called the house I grew up in 'home'. I lived with my dad briefly after my parents divorced, but I eventually moved back here to my mom's house... well, the guest house technically

Phoenix, Arizona. I moved here three years ago and am loving it.
It does have a tendancy to get a little warm here, but as long as my a/c works, I'm happy.

Home is wherever my wife is. No matter where that might be.
Sorry, I know how facetious that sounds, but I mean it. WHen I was younger, home was my parents' house. When I got a little older, home was York, the city where I lived. Now I've fallen in love and got married, home is with the woman I love most in the world.

Home is where lurkette and I live right now--currently a lovely three-bedroom house in North Carolina.
When my parents sold and moved out of the house I grew up in, I definitely was confronted with some issues about what I call "home". THAT was home! The countertop I ran my head into when I was six! The room I decorated! The lawn I mowed and garden I weeded! The workshop in the garage where I built my cub scout pinewood derby cars! The basement where my garage band practiced! The bushes where I hid cigarette butts when I was 16! Then I got over it.  |

I have yet to find a place I would like to call home.
I was born and raised in Denver, Colorado but not having been too many places I can't say that I would only be able to feel at home here. Maybe one day I'll travel the world and end up in some small town that makes happy but until that happens I'm keeping my options open.

Born, Bred, and Raised in Northern VA. So it is home to me. I have a harder time differentiating between my home and my parents home (about 20 minutes away). Its strange because sometimes I say, "I'm going home" meaning my mom's and dad's place and my sister and girlfriend understand what I mean. And sometimes I say "I'm going home" meaning my place and my sister and girlfriend understand what I mean. Weird huh? Its like how the smurfs use smurf.
Smurf you later. |
