Home Sweet Home?

If home is where you were born then here I am. On the other hand if home is where your heart is...

Strange being back in the place I was born in and grew up in until the age of 14. Well actually only 9 years as we lived elsewhere and in Canada for several years. Anyway it's strange... I still love the glorious countryside of the Yorkshire Dale's and it will always have a place in my heart but I have been so many other countries and lived so many other places that it always feels odd coming here. I have not been back for 10 years and I find being here I feel just as much a stranger in a strange land as I do on my other travels.

Despite the deep familiarity that can only come from a place you grew up in, it still feels as if I'm just another tourist in this green and pleasant land.

Home is where the heart is and as that is inside me then wherever I am is home!Read more
