ABSTRACT

What does home mean to you? Where, when and why do you feel at home? To what extent does your sense of home travel across different times, places and scales? In light of the multiple experiences of home in the modern world and the complexity of home as a theoretical concept, we surmise that we would get many and varied answers to these questions. Some may speak of the physical structure of their house or dwelling; others may refer to relationships or connections over space and time. You might have positive or negative feelings about home, or a mixture of the two. Your sense of home might be closely shaped by your memories of childhood, alongside your present experiences and your dreams for the future.
