I'm currently reading The Art of Coming Home written by Craig Storti for obvious reasons.
To quote the book on Stages of Reentry because it seems very relevant:
1. Leave-taking and departure
2. The Honeymoon
3. Reverse Culture Shock
4. Readjustment
According to this... I'm in Stage 3.
Hello, I have not read this book, I'm interested in hearing what you think of the book. Is there anything on third culture kids in the book? Have you heard this quote? "Every parting is a form of death, as every reunion is a type of heaven." ~Tryon Edwards Greetings Janneke @DrieCulturen
ReplyDeleteI think its mainly written for expats who have now repatriated. I just barely started reading the book and only about 1/4 of my way through (restarting life has gotten in the way). I will definitely keep you posted. I think it is relevant to third culture kids who will be returning "home" wherever they think (or used to think) it is.
