All I ever want is to return to either Bangladesh, my motherland, or India, my adopted home.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I have a beautiful family. I want to be here, for my family.
It is also very engaging - and a delight - to go back to Bangladesh as often as I can, which is not only my old home, but also where some of my closest friends and collaborators live and work.
I returned to India after long years of international service, because I had always cherished the desire to make a difference in my own country.
Sheikh Hasina's government is one of the best Bangladesh has ever had. She is taking action against fundamentalists. But even she refused to let me return. I don't think I can ever return home.
All I wanted to do was please my adopted family.
Moving to India was challenging being a foreigner. I don't have any family here. I didn't have anyone to guide me. But I never felt for a second that I am not welcome here.
I don't think I'll ever escape the fact that I don't belong anywhere in particular. I've often dreamed about going back to Nigeria, but that's a very romantic notion. It's a hideous country to go to in reality.
I miss my family, and I like being a tourist when I go back.
I want to go back to Brazil, get married, have lots of kids, and just be a couch tomato.
I could definitely see myself living back in Australia again. If I had a family, I could move back.
