About this listen

Do we really know what we're doing when we leave our home to live in a foreign culture? Why do some of us keep leaving, travelling from place to place, never settling, never really feeling at home? In today's globalised world it is increasingly expected that many of us will go where the job takes us, but at what cost? This book tells the stories of 'existential migrants', people who left home in order to discover themselves. It also warns us that there may be an unexpected psychological effect from thinking we can just live everywhere. We may end up homeless. The 21st century could herald 'the end of belonging'. One reader's review: "This is one of the most inspiring books I have ever read. Somehow I have a feeling that this book is a milestone in exploring the issue of home and its role in life, it will become a real phenomenon. Being a migrant myself and meeting/ working with other expats, I often thought of migration experience as something very complex in our minds, something that was there, everywhere, but too diffuse to catch and summarize through words. This author has managed. Wow. I fully recommend to every professional working with expats, migrants, returnees; but also if you are living your own migration experience or you are just interested in the issue. You will remember this book". Popular Culture Social Sciences Travel Writing & Commentary
