Where do you feel most at home? (1 Viewer)

[transcendent]

i got this idea from melo and wen
so if you're born here or from another country where does you're heart feel most at home? and do you miss you're mother country? what about if you're born here, do you feel a longing to return to the do the birth place of your ancestors? do you practice the old traditions or embrace the culture of the new country?

Australia. I was born in Phils, but ill be fucked if i go back there nowdays, perhaps if the place wasnt so corrupt/dirty.

 

[Panda Bear]

i like australia.

but i was born in hong kong, and whereever i go i still miss it.

 

[dimzi]

Well, umm i was born here, and i feel most at home when im at, well home! lol

But i want to really go to england one day, just to see 'the mother land' with my own eyes

at my house.

 

[bubz :D]

sydney, australia i wasn't born here but i came here when i was two and a half, so i cant' remember actually living there at all.

i've been back to HK and mainland four times since then, most recently three weeks in dec - jan this year, and though i love going back for vacation, seeing relatives and shopping, i miss sydney so much. though once i get back to sydney, i miss HK (but only for a little while)

i don't deny my heritage, though BUT I AM NOT A FOB!!!!!!!11

I sometimes wish I was chasing big breasted beauties in Sweden.

born in hk but Sydney is home. hk is a bit too crowded

 

[ToO LaZy ^*]

i was born in sydney, but i went back to HK to live there for 5 years. it's more relaxing here but more exciting over there. but i prefer the relaxation rather than crowd fighting in HK.
i went back to HK in nov-jan, the first few weeks were great!!..but after the 4th week, it started to get a bit boring (too bad i'm not going back nx year ...they've got DISNEYLAND now!! )
spending in HK is great and all, but i wouldnt' choose to live there permanenly...so i'd still call australia home
*puts on australian country music*

PS:...bubz is a fob...and will always be one..

 

[Ragerunner]

I'll never survive in HK with broken canto

It'd be funny cuz I'd understand what they say or at least most of it, but i dunno how to reply back.

i feel comfortable in both australia and taiwan. but i'm always having dreams of going back to taiwan, so i guess subconciously, i feel more at home in taiwan. i have lived there for 13 years after all. (oh uhh, but i think one of the reasons i want to go back so badly is to go shopping )

i ditto and agree. except the bit about having lived in taiwan for 13 years

 

[Spring Sakura]

hmmm...

I love HK, but I have to say I feel more comfortable in Australia.
My inability to read chinese makes staying in HK for too long difficult. ^_^

But in all honesty...shopping is more fun in HK......

@ bubz: well xiao's a fob and proud of it too lar!!! =D

hm... it's hard to say... in fact i hate christmas... i got no where to go... it's like the world's so big, but i cna't go any where... anywhere i go, i feel i am out of context...
more like a child abandoned by the world in advance =(

I was born in Australia but i dont feel at home here. I don't look like a typical Australian but i don't speak cantonese properly either. I'm chinese but i am told i don't look chinese either. I don't feel at home anywhere Oh well, i guess i belong in a place like Antarctica

 

[.::icemeLon::.]

i think i would chose ShangHai, even though everything's fine in Australia and all my friends are here. But ShangHai is toO fun to 4get. Relatives, old friends, shopping and FOOD!!!!!!!! It is crowed in China with very bad weather and stuff, but i'll cope

 

[jm1234567890]

were all yellow skined bananas

 

[Jago]

Shang's sooooooooooooo boring. Maybe it's cos i only go when all the kids my age are at school :/
