After 2 months of "Home Assignment" in Singapore, we got back to home in Tokyo.
The thing about living in a foreign country is that, after a few years, you don't quite know which is HOME.
It is when our Japanese family and friends say to us, "Welcome Home!", that we know they have truly accepted us and considered us part of this place they all call home.
Last night (3rd night we since coming home), in the middle of our favourite TV show, our friend, Hamaji, phoned.
Before we contacted him to announce that we are back, he has remembered and was so excited that he risked interrupting our TV show rather than wait to phone us at a later time.
Home is where the heart is, and where somebody thinks you should belong.
