Home

This is my 12th move, and my 3rd move in Shanghai after living here for 3 years.

Every time I leave a place, I feel a pang of emotion. That once warm, bustling house we left early and returned to late becomes unfamiliar in an instant, no longer connected to us. “Home” becomes just a “house” in a moment.

So, I’m very aware that only where family is together is truly home. This way, it doesn’t matter as much where we live, what kind of house it is, or even if we rent or own.
