Why ‘home’ isn’t really a place…

🏠 Is home a place, feeling, person… or something else? 

 

In episode 11 of the I’m lost, so what? Podcast, Cassandra explores the concept of ‘home’ - especially being raised in dual cultures, Vietnamese-American, and now living in another culture, Spain.

 

She explores the ideas of:

• Ethnocentrism
• Assimilation
• Building a home
• And of course, journaling prompts for you to explore this idea on your own

 

If you’ve ever thought about what ‘home’ is like outside your own culture or home country, what home could be like taking into consideration your beliefs, values, and ideals… or that home could be a lifestyle you might not have explored yet…

 

This episode is for you.
