"Hometown"

FB asks me for my "Hometown" and I'm not sure what to say.

I've lived in dxb most of my life and I'm not a citizen here. My parents are from Kerala and yet,whenever I go there, I feel like I'm a tourist... only renting, never buying.

I studied in Tamil Nadu for 4 years and hated it. So that place is out too. I lived in Delhi for 2 and a half years where I was the "outsider" from dxb who was also a "madrasi".

I've been to Egypt and Turkey, Indonesia and Spain. and the UK.
Home is everywhere and nowhere.
I don't belong to a place. And no place belongs to me.

FB should really have a "lost" option in there for people like me!

Change... for the better (hopefully).

When I see things changing around me, when it looks like sometimes I may have to leave... I feel nostalgic. And then I wonder, what exactly would I be leaving behind? Why do I even care?

So yes, I'm keeping my fingers crossed, and looking forward to Change.
