Going back home after moving abroad isn’t always as simple as booking a flight. From juggling family expectations to squeezing in time with friends (all while trying to enjoy your trip), visiting home can be an emotional, financial, and logistical challenge.

In this episode, we unpack the pressures of returning home—who gets priority, what events you feel obligated to attend, and whether you “owe” more visits because you left. We also dive into the trade-offs of using vacation time to go home versus exploring new places and how to set boundaries to make visits more enjoyable and less exhausting.

If you’ve ever struggled with homecoming guilt or felt torn between two places, this one’s for you.
