I have a question.

What do you consider home?

Because I really don't know. I'm half Danish and half Filipino, but I live in Indonesia. When I go back to Denmark I stick out because I'm part Asian and don't speak the language, when I go back to the Philippines (which was once) I stick out because I'm part white. I honestly don't feel like I have a home. And when people at school ask me if I'm going home for the summer, I don't know what to say. I don't really go to a set place every summer. Last year it was England, the year before that South Africa, and before that Australia. In a way I'm sort of envious of that. Of having a place to go home to every summer, to have friends there that missed you and throw a big party for you when you come home.

Or maybe that's just me.

indonesia, rootlessness
