Returning home

Had an interview today. My interviewer was telling me how he had studied in Germany, then the US, came to work in London, and then went back to Frankfurt, purely because of a desire to be home. This shows that Indians aren't the only people in the world who want to go back home if they could. The same could be said for my Polish friends.

Yet the interviewer came back from Frankfurt to London. Indians remain here. So do Poles. Why? Quality of life? No. Something which never gets mentioned or is often bundled with quality of life, is a kind of 'peacefulness factor'. One stays where s/he feels at peace with her/his inner self. Most 'feel-at-peace-with-yourself' place in the world? There is none; there are as many as there are people in the world.
