Carrying a Little Piece of Home With You

Home isn't always a place. Sometimes, home is a feeling.

It's hearing a familiar accent while you're walking down the street. It's finding somewhere that makes a proper arepa. It's a song you haven't heard for years suddenly taking you back to Sunday mornings with your family.

And sometimes, it's something as simple as opening the cupboard and seeing the foods, colors and little cultural references you grew up with, those small connections to home can become surprisingly important.

Culture has a funny way of travelling with us.  Wherever we go, we bring a little piece of home along for the ride.
