Where is home? For some of us, it's not an easy question to answer.
As an expat child, Becka Bristow grew up between countries, cultures and boarding schools. Sent away to boarding school at the age of eight, she learnt early how to adapt, how to fit in and how to leave. Independence became second nature. So did change.
From the outside, it looked like resilience. From the inside, it was something far more complicated.
Nowhere Felt Like Home is an honest and deeply personal memoir of childhood, belonging and the lifelong search for home. Through memories of boarding school life, unaccompanied flights across the world, friendships, loss, attachment and motherhood, Becka reflects on growing up away from home and the ways childhood quietly shapes the adults we become.
For anyone who has ever wondered where they belong.
