Two years.
That's how long it took for you to become home.
You are where my husband works and enjoys being. Where my son goes for activities and pre-school. Where my (new) close friends are. Where a certain park engulfs us in a hug every now and then. Where we have set up our nest that cocoons us. Where I have found my rhythm.
Your sounds and sights are not just familiar but welcoming, even re-assuring. Your people no longer seem like strangers even though your country tags me "alien".
You are where I want my life to be for now. I want to savour my time with you.
Happy to be back home, Bangkok.
