Ohhh Tasha, I love this so much. I’m so drawn to this idea that certain places settle in our souls. I often think about places that have meaning that I haven’t returned to yet while being curiously nomadic about the legion of unfamiliar places I’ve yet to visit and explore and be moved by. I just returned home from 3 weeks in Japan and I was devastated to leave and also ready to return to a sense of homebodyness and the familiar things that make me feel at least temporarily at home somewhere in the world.

Would love to sit and talk with you about all the things on how “places settle into our souls.” And Japan! My childhood. And yes to that tension.

Oh Tasha, so much so. Homesick for Heidelberg, Basel, Lichtenstein, Drumore and probably more. Thank you for finding my memories. 🙏🏼🕯️🕊️🩶

Oh, it’s good to know there are more of us…and it’s good to “gather” here.

Wow. How did you so perfectly express what my own nomadic homebody heart needed today? How did you know what I was publishing over on my own Stack just this same morning? I feel like you somehow wrote this just for me, and I am grateful. 💜

Love this! I completely understand and relate to the term “nomadic homebody”!

I love this blessing. As someone who grew up between multiple countries and cities, home has always been a tricky concept...I'm always torn between staying and going...settling down and flying to new adventures. So this blessing really speaks to so much of how I feel.
