One of my friends always believed that "Home is where your heart is". He believed it so firmly that he permanently inked it on his chest. But does that mean that you only get one home? Or do you have multiple homes? I guess it depends on the person. I think that if home is where your heart is, then I must have about a dozen. Of course, I love my home in London and the one in Bulgaria- that's where my loved ones are. But that does not really exhaust all my "homes".
I think that every time you visit a new place, and you thoroughly enjoy it, you leave a piece of you heart there and you'll always imagine returning there. You can't help but think about what your life would be if you got the courage and moved there to pursue new adventures in a new environment. It's just one of those things that people like to fantasize about, but rarely have the balls to do.
You go to Paris and you see the stylish Parisian ladies casually drinking their coffee, while enjoying a cigarette. And they make it seem like the most effortless thing in the world. And yet they look like they have come out of a vintage photograph taken by a person who gets paid by Vogue. One of those photo shoots that will be spread across the glossy pages of the magazine in order to make all normal women feel insufficient.
You start to notice these little cultural things and then you are unable to stop. Everywhere you go, you attempt to spot them and it gives you a sort of perverse excitement every time you spot a descriptive habit. You end up imagining yourself being in their place. Doing what they do. Dressing the way they dress. Is it absurd to believe that a part of your heart is left there? That's what dreaming symbolizes after all- your heart's desires.
